but resumes operation after a period of time.
Check the air inlet is clean and free of dust. If
the air inlet is dusty or dirty simply remove the
dust or debris with a soft cloth.

USE IN FOOD PREPARATION AREAS
This hand dryer is suitable for use in food preparation areas and for use in the
washrooms of food preparation environments.
This hand dryer is suitable for use in food preparation areas. However to use
a PC-ABS model in food handling areas two rubber front fascia plugs must be
installed. These are different from the plugs received with the unit.
If you are a food manufacturing, processing or catering unit, please contact the
Dyson Helpline on the number on the back cover. You will receive a fascia plug
pack, which includes the rubber plugs and instructions for fitting.
CLEANING
The hand dryer should be cleaned daily. Follow these 3 simple steps to ensure
the machine performs to its best and remains hygienic. Using the wrong cleaning
method or product may invalidate your guarantee.
1. Wipe all surfaces and the (4) sensor lenses with a soft cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner. Particular attention should be paid to the seals and sides of the
machine.
2. Clean the air inlet on the base REGULARLY.
3. Clean the floor beneath and around the machine.
This may be required more regularly in high use areas.
GENERAL ADVICE
All cleaning chemicals should be used exactly as indicated by the
manufacturer’s instructions (including appropriate dilution).
If a cleaning product is left on the machine for too long, a film will form.
This may reduce the effectiveness of the anti-microbial surfaces.
Any chemicals intended for use should first be tested on an inconspicuous area to
confirm suitability.
Aside from cleaning chemicals, care should be taken to avoid any harmful fluids
from coming into contact with the product, in particular oils and alcohol-based
products.
CHEMICAL GUIDELINES
Many professional cleaning chemicals can be used. The following are some that
are harmful to the machine and should not be used. Use of these will invalidate
your warranty.
Do not use:
Alcohol-acid mixes
Alcohol
Solvent /oil-based products
Quaternary ammonium
Alkali-bleach mixes
Foaming ingredients
Bleach or abrasive cleaners
Do not pressure wash

4
WATER GUIDELINES
This hand dryer has an IPX5 certification.
While it is safe for your hand dryer to be washed with water, it is not protected
against high pressure water jets. Use of high pressure washers can force water
inside the casing. Water damage caused by incorrect cleaning will invalidate
your guarantee.
FILTER MAINTENANCE
Regularly check the air inlet at the base of the hand dryer to ensure that it is
free from dust and debris. Simply wiping the inlet with a soft cloth should be
sufficient.
If required for high usage environments, a Dyson filter change kit provides
everything needed to change your machine’s HEPA filter on site. Contact the
Dyson Helpline on the number on the back cover of this manual for more
information.
Filter cleaning or replacement can be carried out by carefully following the
instructions given in the filter change kit. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician or contact the Dyson Helpline for support or a service call.
