Carefully dry the appliance and make sure that all the electrical parts are dry: in the case of doubt, ask for professionally qualified help. It is essential that the motor's air holes be kept from dust and lint. If the fan will not be used for long periods, it must be protected from dust and humidity; we recommend storing it in its original packaging. Should you decide not to use the appliance any more, we recommend making it inoperative by cutting the power cord (after making sure you have disconnected the plug from the socket) and make dangerous parts harmless if children are allowed to play with them. The battery of the remote control must be disposed of in the appropriate containers; dispose of them in compliance with current law. Do not dispose of non-biodegradable products in the environment but dispose of them in accordance with current law. At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.16/40
