breaker with a rated tripping current 

not exceeding 30mA into your 

bathroom installation. Please consult 

a quali

Caution:

  Keep any packaging materials 

well away from children – these are 

a potential source of danger, e.g. of 

suffocation.

∙

 Protect the appliance from moisture and 

splashing water and do not operate it with 

wet hands.

∙

 Electric heating appliances operate at 

very high temperatures. Do not touch 

any part of the appliance except the grip. 

Otherwise there is a real risk of burning.

∙

 Do not use the appliance on synthetic 

hair-pieces or wigs, as the heat emitted 

might cause damage to the synthetic 

fi

 bres.

∙

 Make sure the air intake and outlet 

openings are not blocked (e.g. by 

fi

 ngers 

or hair), and that no 

fl

 uff or 

fi

 bre particles 

are allowed to accumulate in the air 

intake.

A blockage in the air-

fl

 ow system may 

cause the integral thermal safety cut-out 

to switch off the appliance. Should 

this occur, immediately disconnect the 

appliance from the mains power and 

allow suf

fi

 cient time for it to cool down 

before the blockage is removed and the 

appliance is switched on again.

∙

 Every time the appliance is used, the 

main body including the power cord as 

well as any attachment 

fi

 tted should 

be checked thoroughly for any defects. 

Should the appliance, for instance, have 

been dropped onto a hard surface, or if 

excessive force has been used to pull the 

power cord, it must no longer be used:  

even invisible damage may have adverse 

effects on the operational safety of the 

appliance.

∙

 To prevent damage to the power cord, 

-

do not bend or kink the cable, especially 

where it leaves the housing,

-

do not pull on the cord,

-

do not coil the power cord around the 

appliance.

∙

 Do not leave the appliance unattended 

while in use.

∙

 Always switch off and remove the plug 

from the wall socket after use, and also 

in the event of any malfunction. 

∙

 When removing the plug from the wall 

socket, never pull on the power cord;  

always grip the plug itself.

∙

 Do not place the appliance on any 

surfaces sensitive to heat during or 

immediately after use.

 No responsibility will be accepted if 

damage results from improper use, or if 

these instructions are not complied with.
