Important Safeguards For All
Electrical Appliances
• Carefully read all instructions before operating
the appliance and save for future reference.
• Remove and safely discard all packaging
material and promotional labels before using
the appliance for the first time.
• Fully unwind the power cord before use.
• Do not let the power cord hang over the edge
of a bench or table, touch hot surfaces or
become knotted.
• To protect against electric shock, do not
immerse the power cord, power plug or
appliance in water or any other liquid, unless it
is recommended in the cleaning instructions.
• The appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance, by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• It is recommended to inspect the appliance
regularly. Do not use the appliance if the
power supply cord, plug, connector or
appliance becomes damaged in anyway.
Return the entire appliance to the nearest
authorised Kambrook Service Centre for
examination and/or repair.
• Any maintenance other than cleaning should
be performed at an authorised Kambrook
Service Centre.
• This appliance is for household use only. Do not
use this appliance for other than its intended
use. Do not use in moving vehicles or boats.
Do not use outdoors.
Misuse may cause injury.
• The installation of a residual current device
(safety switch) is recommended to provide
additional safety protection when using
electrical appliances. It is advisable that a
safety switch with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA be installed in
the electrical circuit supplying the appliance.
See your electrician for professional advice
• Always turn the appliance to the OFF
position, switch off at the power outlet
and unplug at the power outlet when the
appliance is not in use.
• Before cleaning, always turn the appliance to
the OFF position, switch off at the power outlet,
unplug at the power outlet and remove the
power cord, if detachable, from the appliance
and allow all parts to cool.
• Do not place this appliance on or near a heat
source, such as hot plate, oven or heaters.
• Position the appliance at a minimum
distance of 20cm away from walls, curtains
and other heat or steam sensitive materials
and provide adequate space above and on
all sides for air circulation.
• Do not twist, kink or wrap the cord tightly
around the appliance, as this may cause
the plastic insulation to weaken and split
(particularly where the cord enters the
appliance or joins the plug) thus allowing
the cord’s wiring to be bared and become
an electrical hazard. If the cord becomes
twisted, return it to your Kambrook Service
Centre or Authorised Service Agent for
checking or replacement.
• When the hair dryer is used in a bathroom,
unplug it after use since the proximity of water
presents a hazard even when the hair dryer is
switched off.
• For additional protection the installation of
a residual current device (RCD) with a rated
residual operating current not exceeding
30mA is advisable in the electrical circuit
supplying the bathroom. Ask your installer for
advice.
