GENERAL OPERATION
This dryer is activated by an infrared sensor. The dryer operates as long as hands are below nozzle. There is a maximum 35-second running time with a safety
override feature, if hands are not removed. Each component used in your dryer has been designed to provide years of trouble-free service. However, if trouble
should develop, it can normally be located by visual examination. Removal or replacement of most parts is simple and can be done without special tools.
