13.Cleaning and care
Potentially fatal electrical shock:
•Never open the appliance housing. There are no
•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 t.
➩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 a of the laminator.
➩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.
