not pour water or any other liquids onto the appliance or into the air intake
and air outflow vents.
• Do not use the appliance in immediate vicinity of a bath tub, a shower or a
swimming pool (observe a minimum distance of 3 m). Place the appliance
such that a person in the bath tub cannot touch the appliance.
• Do not place the appliance near a heat source. Do not subject the power
cord to direct heat (such as a heated hotplate, open flames, hot iron sole
plates or heaters for example). Protect power cords from oil.
• Do not use the dehumidifier if it is faulty or could show signs of damage,
or if it is not functioning correctly. Disconnect the plug from the power

10 °C. In case of lower temperatures, the DEFROST mode is activated too
frequently. The highest operating temperature is 35 °C and the relative
humidity is 90 %.
