ACCESSORIES

The device does not need any specific accessory to be operated; the tray is the only accessory coming with
the machine and was designed specifically to achieve an optimal air flow.

POTENTIALLY HARMFUL OPERATIONS

As described under par.6, potentially harmful operations are due to negligence or incapacity on the
operator's part or improper use of the machine.
Damage may derive also from cleaning and maintenance operations not complying with the instructions
described under par. 13, 14; in particular, the mains lead must be disconnected from the electric network
each time maintenance operations are carried out.

SITUATIONS THAT COULD ARISE DURING OPERATION

Since the machine's principle of operation is very simple, it rarely malfunctions.
When the machine is switched on using the main switch and the switch does not light up, this means that
there is no electricity. If the plug is properly inserted, then there is a fuse problem (see fig B pos 5). The
fuses should therefore be replaced and, if they blow again, technical assistance should be sought.
When the switch lights up and the heating element does not heat when the timer is activated, this means that
either the heating element is damaged or the timer is not working. Switch off the machine and seek technical
assistance.
Another situation that could arise is that the heating element no longer switches itself off automatically. This
is because the timer is broken. Also in this case, technical assistance service must be sought.
In certain situations the temperature of the machine may rise too high, e.g. during the summer, or if the
machine is kept on for long periods, or if it is installed in a tight cabinet with too little space around it to permit
sufficient ventilation.
In such cases, the heating element may automatically disconnect from the thermostat in order to safeguard
against the machine overheating. In this case, the air produced by the machine will be cold.
Since the thermostat has an automatic resetting mechanism, it resets itself automatically, after the
machine has cooled down. So to restore it to normal operating conditions, simply let the machine cool
down for a few minutes.
Repairs must be carried out by MANUFACTURER or by authorised personnel. Unauthorised operations are
considered as tampering and automatically entail the annulment of the warranty and MANUFACTURER
does not shoulder any responsibility for damage following such unauthorised operations.

ORDINARY MAINTENANCE

Ordinary maintenance consists in normal cleaning operations to be carried out when necessary according to
the state of the machine.
Before starting cleaning, the mains lead must be disconnected from the electric supply network.
To clean the tray and the drying chamber, bear in mind that the accumulated dirt is calcareous and therefore
calls for passing a sponge soaked with scale remover on the surface, waiting for the limestone to be
removed, rinsing with the sponge and finally drying.
The external surface can be simply cleaned by means of a moist cloth; no abrasive agent must be used. Do
not flood the machine, nor use water jets; the electrical and mechanic components would be damaged and
the operator may be involved in electric shock hazards.
