Important Safety Advice - Duracraft DD-TEC10E Instruction Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE

Read through all the instructions before starting to use the
dehumidifier. Keep this instruction manual in a safe place
for future reference.
1. Supervision is necessary when the dehumidifier is used
near children.
2. Do not use the dehumidifier outdoors.
3. Place the dehumidifier on a firm, even, waterproof
surface. Make sure it is standing securely so that the de-
humidifier cannot tip over or fall down. Water can damage
furniture and floor coverings.
4. Unwind the cord completely. An incompletely unwound
cord can lead to overheating and cause a fire.
5. Do not use an extension cord, a multiway connector, or
a continuously adjustable speed controller. This can cause
overheating, fire, or electric shock.
6. Connect the dehumidifier only to a single-phase socket
with the supply voltage as stated on the type plate.
7. Always switch the dehumidifier off with the power key
(2) and always disconnect the plug (13) from the power
socket when the dehumidifier is not in use, or when it is
moved, handled or cleaned. Do not tug at the cord to dis-
connect the plug. Do not disconnect the plug when the
dehumidifier is running. Always first switch the dehumidi-
fier off with the power key (2).
8. The dehumidifier functions optimally at a room tempera-
ture of between 13°C and 35°C. Optimal dehumidifying per-
formance is only achievable in the higher temperature range
(from 22°C) and with higher room humidity (from 70%).
9. Do not use the dehumidifier anywhere near easily
inflammable gases or substances, near an open fire, or at
a location where oil and water could splash. Do not spray
insecticides or similar substances onto the dehumidifier.
Make sure that the dehumidifier is not exposed to direct
sunlight. Do not use the dehumidifier in a hothouse or
near a bathtub, shower or swimming-pool. Do not put any
hot or heavy objects on the dehumidifier.
10. The air intake and air outflow vents (9+10) must
always be kept open during dehumidification. Make sure
that no objects can get into the air intake or air outflow
vents (9+10) . This can lead to overheating, fire or electric
shock. The dehumidifier must not be installed behind cur-
tains, drapes or other objects and obstacles which could
impair the air circulation. A safety distance of at least
50 cm from other objects must be maintained. In addition,
a safety distance of at least 60 cm from wet areas such as
showers, washbasins, sinks, bathtubs etc. must be main-
tained. A safety distance of 120 cm from the water supply,
e.g. a water tap, is necessary.
11. Do not remove the water tank (15) while the dehumidi-
fier is running. Water can damage furniture and floor-cove-
rings and cause an electric shock.
12. Wait for 3 - 5 minutes after switching the dehumidifier
off before you switch it back on again.
13. Do not dip the dehumidifier into water or any other
liquids and do not pour water or any other liquids onto the
appliance or into the air intake and air outflow vents (9+10).
14. Clean the dehumidifier regularly, following the cleaning
instructions.
15. Always transport the dehumidifier in an upright posi-
tion. Before using the dehumidifier for the first time, leave
it standing in an upright position for 24 hours. Always
stand the dehumidifier in an upright position immediately
after transporting the appliance, and wait for at least 60
minutes before switching it back on. The water tank (15)
must be emptied every time before transport.
16. The dehumidifier must always be operated according
to this instruction manual. Non-observance of these
instructions can lead to injuries, a fire, electric shock or
faults in the appliance.
17. The dehumidifier is designed for private use indoors
and is not intended for commercial use.
18. If the power cord of the dehumidifier is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or a repair shop
authorized by the manufacturer or by similarly qualified
persons in order to prevent damage.
19. 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 socket.
