13.Cleaning and care
Potentially fatal electrical shock:
• Never open the appliance housing. There
are no user-serviceable elements inside.
• Never submerse the appliance into water
or other liquids!
Cleaning the housing:
Clean the surface of the housing with a
slightly moistened cleaning cloth.
➩
First remove the plug.
➩
Allow the appliance to cool down completely.
➩
Ensure that no moisture can permeate into the
appliance.
Cleaning the interior of the appliance:
With every lamination, contaminants are deposited
on the rollers inside the laminator. Over time, this re-
duces the performance of the laminator. You should
therefore clean the rollers inside the laminator after
use.
➩
Prepare the appliance as described in Chapter
8 "Preparing for hot lamination", up to the point
where the green indicator lamp "Ready"
u
glows.
➩
Then run a sheet of DIN A4 paper, folded in
the middle (maximum thickness 1.0 mm) ...
• without a laminating pouch and
• with the fold first
... slowly into the slot for manual pouch input
➩
Release the sheet as soon as you notice it
being pulled in automatically.
• The contaminants on the rollers inside the lami-
nator are now transferred to this sheet of paper.
The paper will be discharged from the pouch
ejector slot
➩
Repeat this cleaning process several times.
Use a fresh clean sheet of paper each time.
When you no longer see any contaminants on
the paper, the rollers inside the laminator are
clean.
14. Storage
Allow the appliance to cool down completely
before putting it into storage.
Do not store the laminator in damp loca-
tions where moisture could enter inside
the appliance. (E.g. cellars)!
