T 9800/T 982x Technical Information Warning and Safety Instructions General Information Danger! Danger of high voltages when working on small components. In a single-board control, as in this appliance's electronic (EPWL 3xx), there is no structural galvanic potential disconnection to the power supply. Therefore, be careful when working on small components, as they may be carrying voltage if the dryer is not disconnected completely from its power supply.
T 9800/T 982x Technical Information Fire Danger Due To Excessive Lint Danger! The dryer must not be operated if there are leaks in the air shield, such as those caused by a defective seal. If the dryer is operated regardless of these leaks, this will result in heavy lint in the appliance interior.
