3. Equipment description
The appliance works without contact. It is fitted with an optical
proximity sensor, which automatically activates the heater and
fan when your hands approach the appliance. The response
area is between 4 cm and 13 cm beneath the air outlet grille.
When you remove your hands, the appliance stops after approx.
three seconds.
The casing design makes it virtually impossible to use the appliance
as a depository for cigarettes or similar. Avoid any wall offset at
the top of the appliance to maintain this effect.
The HTE 5 is also protected against damage by its robust diecast
aluminium casing.
4. Operation
Shake your wet hands over the sink before drying. This reduces
»
the drying time and saves energy.
Then hold your hands under the air outlet grille and rub them
»
together in the hot air current.

Cleaning, care and maintenance

A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning the casing. Never use
abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. Go over the casing with a
soft cloth. Never spray the appliance using a water hose or other
tools. This would let water penetrate the appliance.

6.1

... the appliance does not start

— Check the fuses / MCBs in your fuse box.

the appliance. In this case, the appliance stops after approx.
three seconds to avoid constant operation. In the event of a
fault, check whether the sensor surface is clear. Once you have
removed any objects, the appliance will work correctly again.

off but the fan continues to run for cooling purposes. The
temperature sensor switches the heater on again approx.
