correctly. If the TOC control operates
again, the appliance should be checked
by a competent electrician.

the user that if the appliance is covered, there is a
risk of overheating.
Maintenance

and on the air inlet and discharge grilles. For this
reason regular cleaning is necessary, paying
particular attention to the removal of dirt build up on
the rotor blades. A single drop of light oil should be
applied to the motor bearing from time to time.
