Troubleshooting

Hand dryer does not turn on

Verify the power supply to the unit is active. Check circuit breaker. Ensure the unit is properly hardwired.

Hand dryer not sensing hands automatically

Ensure the sensor area is clean and unobstructed. Check for any damage to the sensor lens. If the issue persists, consult the installation manual or a qualified technician.

Weak airflow or slow drying

Check air vents for blockages from dust or debris. Ensure nothing is obstructing the airflow around the dryer. If the issue continues, contact support.
