4.4 Protection against the danger of
fire
Warning!
As the appliance works
at high temperatures, please
observe the following safety infor-
mation to prevent fire.
• While the appliance is operating, there
must be no flammable objects (e.g. cur-
tains, paper) in the immediate vicinity of
the appliance.
• When setting up the appliance, maintain
a minimum distance of 0.5 m from other
appliances and the wall.
• Never use the appliance to dry textiles
or other items on, over or in front of the
appliance.
• To avoid overheating, the appliance must
never be covered.
• Never operate the appliance in rooms
where there is a risk of explosion or in the
vicinity of flammable gases or liquids.
• The appliance must never be placed
immediately beneath a wall socket, as
the heat it generates could damage the
electrical installation.
• Always check that air can freely enter
and escape. Heat might otherwise build
up inside the appliance.
• Clean the dust filter

regularly (siehe
„6.2

Seite 28). A clogged dust filter could
cause a build up of heat.
• Never leave the appliance running when
it is unattended. The presence of odour
is almost always an indication of
damage. If you notice any such odour,
unplug the mains plug immediately and
have the appliance inspected. The con-
tact data can be found in “Service Cen-
tre” on page 32.

Warning!
To avoid injury, please
observe the following information.
• Ensure that it is not possible for anyone to
trip over or to get caught up in or step on
the mainscable.
• Stay sufficiently far from the appliance to
ensure that the fan cannot suck hair or
items of clothing into the appliance.
• Once hot, if you wish to transport the
appliance, switch it off, pull out the
mains plug, and wait until the appliance
has cooled down. Otherwise you could
burn yourself on the hot surface.
• Always carry the appliance by the lift-up
carry handle
