INSTRUCTION MANUAL Modelnr.: SF-50- &-MULTI-HOLDERS
Quick start
STEP 1 – CHOOSE A GOOD SPOT
Place your Shoefresh in a well-ventilated room, for example the utility room,
garage or hallway. Make sure that the air inlet – the grille at the rear of
the unit – is not covered. Plug the unit into the socket. The Shoefresh will
now start. STEP 2 – PREPARING THE SHOEFRESH FOR USE
Position the multi-holders as shown in figure 2. Please note: the multi-
holders will only fit into the Shoefresh in one specific way. The chip at the
bottom of the multiholder has to slot exactly into the hole for the chip.
Firmly push the multi-holders into place until
you see two bars on the display. The Shoefresh stops after about 10
seconds. STEP 3 – PLACE A PAIR OF SHOES ON THE
SHOEFRESH
Place the shoes over the holders as shown in figure 3. The Shoefresh will
start automatically. Once the program has finished, the Shoefresh will stop
automatically. The infrared sensors are located in the front two holders. Do
you only want to refresh 1 pair of shoes (or other items). Then put it on the
front two holders.
Before you start
IN THIS BOOKLET
Congratulations with your purchase. In this booklet you will find practical
and technical information about the Shoefresh.
WHAT IS THE SHOEFRESH?
The Shoefresh will freshen up and dry shoes in two steps. During the first
step (sterilization), bacteria and fungi, which can cause nasty odours, are
tackled. During the second step (drying), the shoes are dried, resulting in
fresh and dry shoes.
You can also use the Shoefresh to remove odours, fungi and bacteria from and
to dry boots, helmets, socks, gloves and shin protectors.

How does the Shoefresh work?
THE SHOEFRESH FRESHENS UP YOUR SHOES IN TWO STEPS
You simply have to place your shoes on the unit. The Shoefresh does the rest.
Bacteria and fungi in shoes are often the cause of nasty odours. That is why
the Shoefresh will first of all tackle all bacteria and fungi in your shoes
(sterilization). The Shoefresh uses ozone (O3) to do this, which is an
unstable form of oxygen. Your shoes are then dried (dry).
You can decide on the number of minutes that the Shoefresh needs to deodorise
and dry your shoes. You also set the drying temperature yourself. If your
shoes still smell, you can easily extend the sterilization process. If shoes
are extremely wet, you can extend the drying time and/ or increase the drying
temperature. If required, you can also omit the sterilization process.
When designing the Shoefresh, we focussed on safety. If it overheats, the unit
will switch off automatically. The upper limit of ozone is also fixed.
Although small amounts of ozone are not hazardous, we have done everything
possible to keep the emissions of ozone particles as low as possible.
Read more about ozone later on in this User Guide, or take a look at the
website www.shoefresh.eu.
Use
PREPARING THE SHOEFRESH FOR USE
Remove your Shoefresh from its packaging. In the box, you will find the base
unit and two multi-holders. Unwind the power cord. Check for any packaging
material that may have blocked the air inlet in the base unit. Then place the
two multi-holders on the base unit. The multi-holders will only fit into the
base unit in one specific way. The chip at the bottom of the multi-holder (1)
has to slot exactly into the hole for the chip (2).
CHOOSE THE RIGHT SPOT
The Shoefresh uses small amounts of ozone, an unstable form of oxygen. Under
certain conditions, ozone can cause headaches and respiratory problems.
Therefore, always place the Shoefresh in a well-ventilated room. It is fine if
this room is cold. The Shoefresh has been constructed in such a way that it
will still function perfectly, even at temperatures of up to 10 degrees below
zero.
Operation
AUTOMATIC START
You have to do next to nothing to freshen up and dry your shoes. Once you have
plugged in the unit, your Shoefresh is immediately on standby and is ready to
use. The Shoefresh will automatically start with the pre-set programme as soon
as you place your shoes on the holders. The default for the unit is 5 minutes
for the sterilization process, followed by 20 minutes drying at 60 degrees.
NOTE: The infrared sensors are located in the front two holders. Do you
only want to refresh 1 pair of shoes (or other items) with the multi-holders?
Then put it on the front two holders.
AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN
As soon as the programm is finished the Shoefresh will shut down by itself. If
you place shoes over the multi-holders or press any button it will turn back
on again. The fan will keep running for 10 seconds after completion of the
programm.
SETTING THE SHOEFRESH
You can easily preset the sterilization process and drying programme by
pressing the Setting button. You can adjust the length of time for the
deodorising, in the same way that you can adjust the drying time and the
drying temperature. The settings you used last are automatically
saved. STEP 1 – STERILIZE (STZ)
During this step, all odours, bacteria and fungi are removed.
Setting the time for erasing odours, bacteria and fungi (STZ)
Press the Settings button a couple of times until STZ 05 MIN displays (Fig.1),
then press the – button to decrease the time, or + to increase the time. The
minimum sterilizing time you can set is 0 minutes and the maximum time is 10
minutes.
If you do not want to run the deodorisation process and you only want to dry
your shoes, set STZ at 0 minutes.
STEP 2 – DRY
Your shoes are dried during this step.
Set the DRY temperature
Press the Setting button a couple of times until DRY 60 °C displays (Fig.2),
then press the – button to decrease the temperature or + to increase the
temperature. The minimum drying temperature you can set is 40°C and the
maximum drying temperature is 60°C.
Checking the DRY temperature
Press and hold the Settings button for a couple of seconds to view the current
temperature inside the shoes.
Set the DRY time
Press the Settings button a couple of times until DRY 20 MIN displays (Fig.3),
then press the – button to decrease the drying time or + to increase the
time.The minimum drying time you can set is 0 minutes and the maximum time is
60 minutes.
If you do not want the drying process to run and you only want to deodorise
your shoes, set DRY at 0 minutes.
TIP: START CAUTIOUSLY
You can set a drying temperature from 40 to 60 degrees. It is better to dry
leather shoes at a low temperature. Therefore, initially opt for a lower
temperature of, for example, 40 degrees. You can set a higher temperature for
plastic sports shoes (trainers) and we recommend that this temperature is 60
degrees.
Do not set the drying temperature higher than the article can tolerate.
MANUAL START
The Shoefresh starts and stops automatically when you place a pair of shoes
over the multi-holders. However, you can also start the Shoefresh manually. To
start your Shoefresh manually, press and hold the + and – buttons
simultaneously for a few seconds. You can stop the Shoefresh by pressing and
holding the + and – buttons simultaneously again or by removing the shoes from
the multi-holders.
BACK TO FACTORY DEFAULTS
To restore your Shoefresh to the default programme (5 minutes deodorisation
and 20 minutes drying at 60 degrees) keep the Settings button pressed in for a
few seconds. The display will then flash to indicate that the default
programme has been reactivated.
Tips for safe use
BEFORE USE, READ THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
Always use electrical appliances with care. Use your common sense.
Use the Shoefresh in a properly ventilated location and not in a room in which
you are continuously working. The Shoefresh uses ozone to effectively
dissipate odours. Too much ozone leads to poor air quality and can cause
headaches or respiratory problems.
Place the unit on a firm surface and make sure that your Shoefresh is always
upright when in use. Always make sure that the air inlet – the grille at the
rear – is unobstructed.
Do not use the Shoefresh with a damaged cord or plug. If the electrical cord
is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or authorised service agent
to avoid a hazard.
The Shoefresh has been designed for use in wet rooms, such as bathrooms. The
articles that you place on the unit also contain moisture. Water from your
shoes can drain off via drainage holes underneath the unit. However, in the
event of a large spillage, (e.g. water pouring from inside a Wellington boot),
we recommend switching off the Shoefresh and unplugging the dryer from the
socket until the water has drained out of the unit via the drainage holes
underneath. Leave the unit to stand in a dry room for 24 hours. Too much water
can, however, damage the Shoefresh. Make sure that the Shoefresh is never left
standing in the water.
Never submerge the Shoefresh in water.
The Shoefresh is not a toy. Never allow children to play with the unit. Only
allow children to use the Shoefresh under adult supervision.
Do not place anything between the two multi-holders when the Shoefresh is
plugged in, because the Shoefresh is then not ready to start operation.
Do not disassemble or repair the Shoefresh or alter it in any way. This can
cause injury, fire or other malfunctions. Only allow a qualified service agent
to perform repair and maintenance work on the dryer. Removing any parts or
attempting to service the Shoefresh yourself will invalidate the warranty.
Keep the dryer away from fire, combustible gas and corrosive substances.
Troubleshooting
The Shoefresh does not start properly.
- Check whether the plug is properly plugged in the socket.
- Check whether the socket is switched on (if there is a switch).
- Check whether your house circuit breaker switch or fuse is/are on.
The LED display shows the code “E1”. The temperature sensor has malfunctioned.
Contact your retailer or service agent for examination, repair or possible
replacement.
The LED display shows the code “E2”. The heater fuse has blown. Contact your
retailer or service agent for examination, repair or possible replacement.
The LED display is on and the fan is working, but there is no ozone. The ozone
generator has malfunctioned. Contact your retailer or service agent for
examination, repair or possible replacement.
The Shoefresh is not drying perfectly.
- Make sure that the drying temperature is not set too low. Reset the drying temperature to a higher level and if required a longer drying time.
- Make sure that the article that you wish to dry is not too wet. Squeeze out excess water before drying.
There is water under the base unit. The Shoefresh can drain small amounts of
water from very wet articles that are put on the multi-holders to dry. Clean
away this water.
Please note: the instructions in this User Guide do not cover every
possible situation that may arise. Good judgement must be used when operating
this or any other electrical appliance.
Maintenance & warranty
Use a damp soft cloth with a drop of liquid soap to clean the Shoefresh. Do
not use abrasives or stiff brushes. Use a soft brush to clear away dust and
dirt from the air inlet.
Never submerge the Shoefresh in water.
Your Shoefresh is covered by a one-year warranty. The warranty starts on the
date of purchase.
Cosmetic damage, damage caused by incorrect use, damage resulting from an
accident, damage caused by repair or modifications performed by unauthorised
service agents, or units that are used for commercial purposes are not covered
by this warranty.
The quality of the Shoefresh is unsurpassed.
We are convinced that you will enjoy your Shoefresh for many years.
