by a fuse of suitable capacity as stated in the technical specifications table.

• Power cable of this product is equipped with a

conductor and a grounding plug that allows for grounding the product. This plug must be inserted into a socket which is installed and grounded in accordance with the local laws and regulations. Grounding installation decreases the risk of electric shock by opening a path with low resistance for the electricity flow in case of a malfunction or failure. Do not neglect to have the grounding installation made by a qualified electrician. If you have any suspect about the grounding installation, have it checked by a qualified electrician or the

Authorized Service Agent. Our company shall not

chimney holes which are used for the exhaust fumes of the devices operating with gas or other types of fuel.

• You must provide enough ventilation in order to

prevent gases exiting from devices operating with other types of fuels including the naked flame from accumulating in the room due to the back fire effect.

• Items cleaned or washed with gasoil/fuel oil,

dry-laundry solvents and other combustible or explosive materials as well as the items that are contaminated or spotted with such materials should not be dried in the product since they emit flammable or explosive vapor.

• Do not dry the laundry cleaned with industrial

chemicals in the dryer.

The final step of the drying programme, namely

the cool-down step is performed without applying heat to ensure that the laundry items are kept at a temperature that will not damage them. If you open the loading door before the cool-down step

completes, hot vapour will come out.

Never stop the dryer before the programme

completes. If you must do this, remove all laundry quickly and lay them out to a suitable place to dissipate the heat.
