3. Equipment
description
The appliance works without contact. It is fitted with an optical 
proximity sensor, which automatically activates the heater and 
fan when your hands approach the appliance. The response 
area is between 4 cm and 13 cm beneath the air outlet grille. 
When you remove your hands, the appliance stops after approx. 
three seconds.
The casing design makes it virtually impossible to use the appliance 
as a depository for cigarettes or similar. Avoid any wall offset at 
the top of the appliance to maintain this effect.
The HTT 5 is also protected against damage by its robust diecast 
aluminium casing.
4. Operation
»
Shake your wet hands over the sink before drying. This reduces 
the drying time and saves energy.
»
Then hold your hands under the air outlet grille and rub them 
together in the hot air current.
5. Cleaning, care and maintenance
A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning the casing. Never use 
abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. Go over the casing with a 
soft cloth. Never spray the appliance using a water hose or other 
tools. This would let water penetrate the appliance.
6. What to do if ...
6.1
... the appliance does not start
— Check the fuses / MCBs in your fuse box.
— Covering the optical proximity sensor impairs the function of
the appliance. In this case, the appliance stops after approx. 
three seconds to avoid constant operation. In the event of a 
fault, check whether the sensor surface is clear. Once you have 
removed any objects, the appliance will work correctly again.
6.2
... the fan is running but there is no hot air
— When overheating occurs, the heater bank is switched
off but the fan continues to run for cooling purposes. The 
temperature sensor switches the heater on again approx. 
two minutes after the appliance stops.
6.3
The type plate
The type plate is located at the bottom of the appliance.
