Be careful when the casing of the appliance is dismantled because active parts of the device become accessible and then there is a potential risk of an electric shock.
Before any electrical manipulation, the electrical current must be cut to avoid any electric shock risk
Be careful because local installation requirements can ask for more than 1 m of safety distance. Consider these local requirements as well.

Installation
ONLY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN CAN INSTALL, ADJUST AND MAINTAIN THIS HAND DRYER.

The installation of the appliance is only allowed on fixed wiring.
The installer must make sure that the electric system is grounded by the law in force.
Make sure that the machine is disconnected from the electric power supply, before performing maintenance operation.
The hand dryer must be fitted to the wall by using the upper plate (support) which is supplied. After fitting the plate, the hand dryer should be hung on it.
The lower screw avoids an easy disassembly of the unit from the wall.
To assemble the hand dryer the following steps must be done.
- Make four 8 mm (0.31”) diameter drill holes in the wall using the provided template (1).
- Clean the dust away and insert the wall plugs.
- Screw the upper plate to the wall (2).
- Pass the electrical cables from the mains through the 22 mm (0.87”) diameter hole located in the rear plastic base plate. (3). Connect the electrical wires to the hand dryer terminal block. Two phases (N, L) and ground wires must be screwed in the right ways of the terminal block, as indicated by the engraved letters.
- Hang the hand dryer to the plate (4)
- Place the lower screw for setting the appliance completely (5)
- Place the water tank (6) $mediclinics-M23A-Series-Hand-Dryers-Fig- $2$$
- Installation height must be shown in the figure

ATTENTION:
WHEN THE CASING IS DISMANTLED ACTIVE PARTS OF THE DEVICE BECOME ACCESSIBLE.

Maintenance
ONLY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN CAN INSTALL, ADJUST AND MAINTAIN THIS HAND DRYER.

Adjust the speed of the motor and heating element.

To adjust the speed of the motor turn the sensor potentiometer wheel as the picture shows.
The heating element may be disconnected by switching the switch to (OFF) as shown in the picture below $mediclinics-M23A-Series-Hand-Dryers-Fig- $4$$
Information relative to the pilot lights.
The light placed at the side of the ‘U’ shaped opening of the hand dryer (see figure) advises about:
Standby (green color) or operation status (yellow color).
The red color is bright when the motor has a problem with consumption (due to brushes that may be wearing out or due to a blocked or locked state of the motor).

Water tanks
Water from hands drops directly into a removable double water tank system. The water fills in advance the internal upper tank. In low-traffic installations, the water will evaporate and it won’t be needed to empty the tank. In medium- high-traffic installations, the inner tank will be filled and this tank, through an overflow feature will fill the visible outer tank. When water from the lower water tank reaches the ‘full level’ an acoustic alarm sounds and the blue pilot light brightens (see Fig.). In this case, the water in the tank must be emptied. It is recommended to check, empty, and clean the tanks periodically. The periodicity must be adjusted according to the installation traffic.

To remove the visible tank, pull it in the user’s direction. Empty and clean the water tank and assemble it back as shown in the picture.
To remove the inner tank, once the lower tank according to the figure, pull it down using the two central ribs. Empty and clean the tank and assemble it back as shown in the picture. $mediclinics-M23A-Series-Hand-Dryers-Fig- $7$$

Drain pipe connection
The U-Flow hand dryer is ready to be connected to the drain pipe. Remove the cover and connect the internal drain pipe tank side to the arrow-marked hole at the back part of the hand dryer. Assemble the cover.

Assemble the supplied hose to the hand dryer back. Assembly the hand dryer to the wall, placing the assembled hose inside the wall drain pipe.
