Safety Advice; How It Works - Kruger SECOMAT 160 Operating Instructions Manual

BEFORE USE
Please read these operating instructions
carefully. They contain important infor-
mation regarding the use, safety and
maintenance of this machine.
Keep these instructions in a safe place
and hand them on to any subsequent us-
ers of the equipment.
This machine may only be used for the
purpose for which it was designed as
specified in these instructions. Make
sure that you comply with the following

safety advice.

SAFETY ADVICE
• This machine is not a toy. Children do
not realise the potential dangers asso-
ciated with electrical equipment. The
machine should therefore be used and
stored out of reach of children.
• The clothes drier may only be installed
in accordance with the relevant na-
tional regulations for connecting such
equipment.
• Never insert fingers or other objects
into the openings on the machine be-
cause of the risk of injury.
• Always switch off the machine when
not in use.
• Make sure the electric cable does not
come into contact with hot surfaces.
• Unplug the mains plug:
a) in the event of malfunctions
b) before cleaning the equipment
c) after use
Never remove the mains plug from the
socket by pulling the lead or with wet
hands.
• Never drag the machine by the mains
cable.
• Don't pull or push the machine over
sharp edges.
• Do not use an extension cable unless
you have made sure that it is in prop-
er working condition. If you are using
a cable roll, unroll the entire cable.
• Do not start the machine (unplug
mains plug immediately) if:
a) the machine or mains cable is dam-
aged.
b) you suspect there may be a defect
in the equipment as a result of be-
ing dropped or similar
In this case, the machine must be
checked by a refrigeration specialist
and repaired if necessary.
• The machine must never be used in
standing water. If this occurs, the ma-
chine must first of all be unplugged or
the fuse removed before anyone steps
into the water.
• Do not sit or place heavy objects on the
machine.
• No liability can be accepted for any
damage if the machine is misused or
is not repaired by specialist personnel.
In this case, the warranty is void.
WHAT IT IS DESIGNED
TO DO
This machine has been designed specifi-
cally for the drying of clothes.

HOW IT WORKS

Moist air from the room is moved by
a fan over a cold coil connected to the
refrigeration unit. The humidity con-
denses on the coil and drops down as
water into the collector. The air is then
reheated by the condenser to its incom-
ing temperature before being released
back into the room.
INSTRUCTIONS
Transportation and storage
The machine should whenever possible
be transported in an upright position.
If it is transported on its side, the
machine must be placed in an upright
position and left for at least two hours
before being connected to the mains
and started.
If the machine is not going to be used
for a significant period of time, the water
tank and housing must be cleaned with a
damp cloth and then rubbed dry before
storage. The machine should then be
packed in its original box.
Fitting the washing line
For the best drying results, fit the wash-
ing line as described below:
Wrong:
The washing facing the drier obstructs
the flow of air so that the washing
towards the back takes much longer
to dry.
Good:
In this case the air can circulate and is
able to reach the items at the back.
Best:
The Sunline System has been specially de-
veloped by Krüger for its Secomat range
of clothes driers and gives the shortest
drying times.
Installing the clothes drier
• Fit the enclosed fixing rail to the wall
60 cm below the clothes line (if possi-
ble, on an internal wall to prevent the
build-up of condensation behind the
machine)
• Attach the machine to this rail and
secure with the left and right-hand
screws
• Ensure a safe distance of 8 cm to flam-
mable parts
Operating temperatures
160 E: min. +15°C, max. +30°C
160 AH: min. +8°C, max. +30°C
In model E, the heating element is not
activated. Therefore, the appliance on-
ly operates properly within a tempera-
ture range between +15°C and +30°C. If
the appliance is operated in a tempera-
ture range below 15°C, an icing of the
cooling element may occur. In this case,
the heating element has to be activat-
ed by the service technician. This oper-
ating mode should be avoided, as the
power consumption increases during
operation with the heating element ac-
