each castor to a 45° angle to the housing for best
airflow.
2. Tilt Back – Tilt the Whole Room Dryer backward
on the four curved molded legs at an angle to direct
air for elevated drying.
3. Upright – Set the Whole Room Dryer square
with the handle on the top to direct air across a
room.
4. Tilt Forward – Tilt the Whole Room Dryer forward
on the “standing” legs at an angle to direct airflow
along the flow in front of the dryer.

• Check for proper operation before leaving the unit
unattended. Do not move or carry the dryer when it
is running.

Always unplug and wipe down and dry the machine after
use. Wrap supply cord around the cable winder ensuring
that the plug is not trailing on the floor.
Store the machine in a dry indoor area only.
WARNING - Before undertaking maintenance
operations or adjustments switch off machine
and unplug from the electricity supply.
The machine requires minimum maintenance apart from
the following checks by the operator.
•Supply cord - Regularly inspect sheath, plug and
cord anchorage for damage or loose connection.
•Body of the machine - Clean with a damp cloth.
•Air vents - Check for dust accumulation around the
air inlet and outlet vents and clean if necessary.
Blocked vents will cause the motor to overheat, and
may lead to premature failure. Warranty claims for this
type of damage will not be accepted
•Motor overload cut-out - All machines are fitted
with an automatic reset motor overload cut-out. The
cut-out will operate to protect the motor from
overheating by switching the machine off. Should the
cut-out operate it will reset automatically when the
motor has cooled sufficiently, usually after
15 - 30 mins.
IMPORTANT - Should the machine fail to operate con-
tact Truvox Customer Service Department for rapid
attention.
