Safety Information
Keep Children Away: Do not allow children to play with or
around the unit, which could result in injury. Be sure the unit is
inaccessible to children when not attended.
Keep Unit Grounded: Always operate the unit with a ground-
ing plug and a grounded electrical outlet. A grounding plug is
an essential safety feature that helps reduce the risk of shock
or fire.
Protect Power Cord from Damage: Never operate a unit with
a damaged power cord, as this may lead to electrical or fire
hazards. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be re-
placed by a cord of the same type and amperage rating.
Extension Cords: Extension cords must be grounded and
able to deliver the appropriate voltage to the unit.
When Using Outdoors: When using outdoors, connect only
to an outlet provided with a Ground Fault Interrupting (GFI)
device, and do not use an extension cord, to reduce the risk of
electrical shock. Do not expose to rain.
Do Not Use Speed Control Device: To reduce the risk of fire
or electric shock, do not use TurboDryers with a solid-state
speed control device.
Handle With Care: Do not drop or throw the unit. Rough
treatment can damage the components or wiring and create a
hazardous condition.
Run on Stable Surface: Always operate the unit on a stable,
level surface, like the floor or a strong counter, so it cannot fall
and cause injury.
Use Caution During Stacked Operation: When stacking for
operation, please use caution to avoid accident or injury from
falling units. Avoid stacking units for operation in high-traffic
areas. Keep children and pets away.
Secure During Transport: When transporting in a vehicle,
secure the unit to prevent sliding and possible injury to vehicle
occupants.

Keep Out of Water: Never operate the unit in pooled or stand-
ing water, as this may create a risk of injury from electrical
shock. Do not store or operate outdoors. If electrical wiring or
components become wet, thoroughly dry them before using
the unit.
Keep Air Intakes Clear: Do not clog or block air intakes, as
may occur if operated too close to draperies or similar materi-
als. This may cause the unit to overheat and result in a fire or
electrical hazard.
Keep Out Dust and Dirt: Do not allow dust, dirt, or other par-
ticles to be drawn into the air intakes. Dirt in the motor can
cause it to overheat, resulting in a fire or electrical hazard. If
the motor gets dirty, clean it using an air hose.
Unplug When Servicing: Always unplug the unit before per-
forming service or maintenance procedures.
Allow Repair Only by Qualified Person: Do not attempt to
disassemble or repair the unit if you are not qualified to do so.
You may handle some maintenance and troubleshooting, but
make sure that more complex problems are handled by an
authorized service technician. For information about author-
ized repair, call Dri-Eaz at (360) 757-7776.
HOW TO USE THE ACE TURBODRYER
Ace TurboDryers are designed to blow air across wet surfaces
for speed drying. The high-volume airflow from TurboDryers
increases the rate of evaporation, helps prevent mold growth,
and reduces the risk of additional moisture damage. Air
movement improves evaporation by removing the boundary
layer of saturated air that hovers near wet surfaces. TurboDry-
ers whisk away this moist air and replace it with drier air.
Placing TurboDryers
When drying in a building, place at least one TurboDryer per
room. Place as many as needed for maximum airflow across
all wet areas of the floor.
Ensure that all wet surfaces receive good airflow. Open interior
doors to maintain good air circulation. Doors may need to be
braced to prevent them from blowing shut.
