General Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Read this manual thoroughly before first use, the safety precautions enclosed herein
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the
manual in a safe place for future reference, along with the completed warranty card
and purchase receipt. If applicable, pass these instructions on to the next owner.
Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when
using an electrical appliance, including the following:
Electrical safety and cord handling
• Voltage: Make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the
voltage indicated on the appliance rating label and your outlet socket is properly
earthed. If this is not the case, do not use the dryer.
• Separate circuit: We strongly recommend you connect the appliance to a separate
circuit serving only this appliance. This provides the best performance and prevents
overloading the house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating.
• Electrical hazard: Do not insert any objects into the appliance.
• No extension cord: Do not use this appliance with a power adaptor or extension
cord.
CAUTION:
If such a device must be used, the cord or outlet device must be
positioned so that it is not subject to splashing or ingress of moisture.
• Protect the power cord. Do not kink or damage the power cord. Position the cord
out of the way so no one steps on or places anything on the cord or against it. Do
not run the cord under floor coverings. Arrange the cord away from traffic areas
where it will not become a trip hazard.
• Damage: Do not operate the appliance after it malfunctions or has been dropped
or damaged.
In case of damage, contact the after sales support line for advice.
• Damaged cord: If the power supply cord is damaged, do not attempt to change
it yourself. A damaged cord or plug must be replaced by the manufacturer or a
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• Disconnect: Unplug the clothes dryer from the power supply after use, before
cleaning, servicing or moving the appliance. To disconnect, turn the appliance off,
switch off the power outlet and remove the plug from the power outlet. Grip the
plug when disconnecting; do not pull on the cord. After disconnection, wait at least
2 minutes before turning the appliance back on again.
• RCD: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety
switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating current
not exceeding 30mA to provide additional safety protection when using electrical
appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.
