1. Operation instructions

1.1 Description of the unit

The automatically operating Stiebel Eltron
HTE 4 A and HTE 5 A electronic hand
dryers are fitted with a proximity switch
which activates the fan when your hands are
brought towards it, (approximately 60 - 120
mm below the warm air exit grille). The dryer
automatically switches off approximately 3
seconds after the hands have moved away
from the sensor.
The casing design does not allow cigarettes
or drinks etc to be placed on top, causing a
hazard. To retain this feature, when
assembling ensure that there are no gaps
between the wall and the unit.
In addition, the HTE 5 A is protected against
damage by the cast aluminium casing.

cloth, with a mild detergent if necessary, and
repolish with a soft cloth. Do not spray the
dryer with water or use any abrasive or
caustic cleaning agents.

1.5 Trouble-shooting

the sensor is impaired if it is covered. If this
happens the hand dryer automatically
switches off after 3 seconds preventing it
from running continuously. In the event of an
operating failure, check that the sensor has
not been covered. After the removal of any
objects the dryer should function as normal.
