GB17 І 7617 І 7617 І 76 m WARNING Failure to follow these instructions may cause danger to life or danger of serious injuries. m CAUTION Failure to follow these instructions may cause light to medium risk of injury. m NOTE Failure to follow these instructions may cause danger of damage of the engine or other property values. General Power Tool Safety Warnings m WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and in- structions may result in electric shock, re and/or se- rious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future ref- erence. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery-oper- ated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the out- let. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of elec- tric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radia- tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. Follow the relevant accident prevention rules for opera- tion and other generally recognised health and safety at work rules. The machine is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been de- signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial appli- cations. Our warranty will be voided if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes. Function principle This air dehumidier works on the basis of the con- densation principle. Room air is sucked through a refrigerating element where water vapour in the air condense as water droplets. Then, the water droplets ow into a conden- sation water bowl and further into the water container while the dried cold air is piped through the condens- er of the device, heated and blown again into the room. The temperature of the blown out air is approx. 2-5 °C above the room temperature. This increase of heat is caused by power introduced in the compressor and fan and by heat which is re- leased by the condensation of the water vapour. The relative humidity of air is gradually reduced thanks to continuous recirculation of the room air through the device resulting in a quick and gentle dry- ing of the room. Water vapours move easily and unhindered through the air. Therefore, it is essential to “seal” the room as tight as possible. That means doors and windows must kept closed and entering and leaving the room should be restricted if possible. Otherwise the drying efciency of the device is considerably impaired.

5. Safety information

These operating instructions provide places concern- ing your safety which are marked with this indication:

Furthermore this manual contains other important sections which are marked with the word "ATTENTION!". m Attention! While using the machine some safety precautions must be observed to prevent injuries and damage. Read the directions with due care. If you give the equipment to any other person, give them these op- erating instructions as well. We assume no liability for injuries or damages which are a results of noncompli- ance of this manual and its safety notes. m DANGER Failure to follow these instructions may cause serious danger to life of danger or fatal injuries. GB18 І 7618 І 7618 І 76 d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfa- miliar with the power tool or these instruc- tions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained us- ers. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign- ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If dam- aged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop- erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instruc- tions, taking into account the working con- ditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali- ed repair person using only identical re- placement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

2. Do not touch any mechanically moving parts or

hot parts. Do not remove protective covers.

3. Do not use electrical equipment (including exten-

sion cables and connectors) that are faulty.

4. • Check whether the mains voltage matches the

one on the label of the device.

5. • Don´t pull the mains plug in order to unplug the

device from the socket.

6. • Make sure not to damage or run over cables

when moving the device.

7. • The socket has to be earthed and appropriately

8. • The dehumidier must not be covered when

used. Don´t put clothes or other objects on it.

9. Keep foreign objects away from air inlet/outlet

10. Only use the dehumidier on sturdy and even

11. Do not turn, tip or change the device position

while it is working.

12. Don´t put the device close to sources of heat, like

radiators, radiant heaters, etc.

13. Don´t use the product close to chemicals and

acids. Those might damage the collection con- tainer or even the whole device.

14. Unplug the device if it is not used for a longer

period or you want to clean it. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp loca- tion is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a pow- er tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten- tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Al- ways wear eye protection. Protective equip- ment such as dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or bat- tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench be- fore turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better con- trol of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth- ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust- related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor- rect power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. GB19 І 7619 І 7619 І 76 Repairs must be carried out by qualied experts with appropriate knowledge about the product. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly quali- ed persons in order to avoid a hazard. RESIDUAL RISKS Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if the relevant safety regulations are complied with due to the design determined by the intended purpose. Re- sidual risks can be minimised if the “Safety advices” and the “Intended usage” as well as the whole of the operating instructions are observed. Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment.

• Risk from electricity when using improper electrical connections.

• Touching live parts of opened electrical components. In addition, in spite of all t he precautionary measures taken, non-obvious residual risks can still exist.
