Instructions for safe operation
• This device can be used by children from the age of 8 and people
with restricted physical, sensory or intellectual abilities or people
without adequate experience and/or understanding, if they are su-
pervised or instructed on how to use this device safely and if they
are aware of the resulting risks. Children must not play with the de-
vice. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by
children unless they are older than 8 years and supervised.
• Children under the age of 8 must be kept away from the device
and the power cable.
• If you use the hair dryer in a bathroom, always pull out the mains
plug afterwards because of the safety risks when it is close to wa-
ter. The proximity of water represents a hazard even when the de-
vice is switched off.
• If the mains cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufac-
turer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person, to avoid
danger.
• Installation of a residual current device (FI/RCD) with a rated resid-
ual operating current of no more than 30 mA is recommended to
provide additional protection. Ask your electrician for advice. The
installation should only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
DANGER for children
• Packing materials are not children's
toys. Children should not be allowed to
play with the plastic bags: there is a risk
of suffocation.
DANGER! Risk of electric
shock due to moisture
• Do not use this device in the vi-
cinity of bathtubs, showers,
washbasins or other vessels
containing water.
