IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This drying cabinet meets applicable safety requirements. Incorrect use may,
however, lead to injuries and damage to objects.
The advice and caution notices in this manual have been written to enable you
to avoid incorrect use and unnecessary risks of accidents, and should be read
before installing and using the drying cabinet.
CAUTION: This equipment is intended only to be used to dry fabrics washed
in water.
• The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
various disabilities or inadequate experience and knowledge.
They may use the appliance only under supervision or if they have received
instructions on how to use the appliance form a person who is responsible
for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appli-
ance.
• The drying cabinet must be installed and kept indoors. If the power cord
is damaged, it must be immediately replaced, and this must be done only
by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s service agent or similarly qualied
persons in order to prevent danger.
Follow PODAB instructions in repair and replacement of parts.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons
when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in, or spotted with gasoline, drycleaning solvents, or other ammable or
explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Risk of suffocation and injury from entrapment: Do not allow children to
play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary
when the appliance is used near children.
4. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the
door to the drying compartment.
5. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weath-
er.
6. Do not tamper with controls.
7. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in
published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills
to carry out.
8. Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured
rubber-like materials.

7©PODAB Inc.
9. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free
from the accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.
10. The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned peri-
odically.
11. Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your drying cabinet. Items
contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that
could cause a load to catch re. To reduce the risk of re due to contam-
inated loads, the nal part of a drying cabinet cycle occurs without heat
(cool down period). Avoid stopping a drying cabinet before the end of the
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that
the heat is dissipated.
12. Do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the
manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).

For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least re-
sistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an
equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment grounding conduc-
tor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualied electrician or
service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appli-
ance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will not t the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE!

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
WARNING!
Install the drying cabinet according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.
WARNING!
Drying cabinet installation must be performed
by a qualified installer.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death,
follow all installation instructions.
WARNING!
Save these instructions.
WARNING!
Do not install a drying cabinet with flexible
plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil
type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific
type identified by the appliance manufacturer
as suitable for use with drying cabinets. Flexi-
ble venting materials are known to collapse, be
easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions
will obstruct drying cabinet airflow and increase
the risk of fire.
WARNING!
• The appliance shall not be exhausted into a
chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl spa-
ce, or a concealed space of a building;
• Only rigid or flexible metal duct shall be used
for exhausting;
• Maximum duct length shall be 8 feet (2.4 m)
and maximum number of bends shall be 4;
• The total length of flexible metal duct shall not
exceed 8 feet (2.4 m);
• The duct shall not be assembled with screws
or other fastening means that extend into the
duct and catch lint.
WARNING!
Do not install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.

FOR A GOOD ENVIRONMENT
PACKAGING MATERIALS
The packaging that protects the drying cabi-
net against damage in transit has been chosen
with concern for the environment in mind and is
therefore recyclable.
Packaging that is returned to the material cycle
means reduced consumption of raw materials
and a smaller volume of waste.
MANAGEMENT OF END-OF-LIFE
DRYING CABINET
When the drying cabinet has reached the
end of its useful life, it must be taken to a
recycling center for disposal.
Many parts of the drying cabinet can be re-
used, but it also contains other material that
must be handled correctly.
You should therefore never leave the drying
cabinet or parts of the cabinet for collection
with household waste, as this may lead to
risks to health and cause damage to the
environment.
The end-of-life drying cabinet should in-
stead be taken to a recycling center. Check
with your dealer if necessary.
All the plastic parts of the drying
cabinet are marked with internationally
standardised symbols.
The parts of the drying cabinet can therefore
be recycled in an environmentally sound
manner by waste separation.
