Safety Protective Devices - The appliance is fitted with an over
heat and tip over protection system.
1. Overheat protection - the power to the heating elements
will automatically cut off if the temperature of the heating
elements exceeds a certain limit. In the event of
overheating, the heater will stop operating. Once the
appliance has completely cooled the appliance will then
resume operating as normal.
2. Tip Over Switch - The unit needs to be placed on a flat,
firm and stable surface to ensure that the appliance
contacts the floor firmly and internal tip over switch is
level. If in the event that the unit tips over or is placed on
an uneven or very soft surface the appliance will not
operate.
POWER CABLE STORAGE
When the appliance is not in use wrap the power cord around
the storage hook to keep your appliance tidy and easy to store
away. The power cord must be completely unwrapped when
plugged into the plug socket or in use.

CLEANING AND CARE

My appliance does not work when I turn it on:
1. Check that your appliance is plugged in, the power is turned
on at the mains socket and the power switch on the side of
the unit is powered unit.
2. Try another mains socket.
3. Check the appliance is in an upright position.
4. Check that the temperature setting has not been set too
low.
5. Check if the Overheat protection has operated by leaving
the appliance plugged in, power on and giving it time to cool
down. The heater should start to resume operating
normally.
6. If the appliance still doesn’t work, do not try to repair it
yourself.
If your appliance power is automatically cut off, follow the step
below:
1. Unplug your appliance from the mains socket and allow it to
completely cool down.
2. Inspect your appliance. Clean the air inlet and air outlet with
a vacuum cleaner if necessary. If there are any signs of
