HAIRDRYER KH 1803
Safety information
Risk of electrocution!
• Connect the hair dryer only to correctly installed
and earthed power sockets with a mains voltage
of 220-240 V at 50 Hz.
• Under no circumstances may the hair dryer be
submerged in fluids, or fluids be permitted to enter
the appliance housing. Do not expose the appli-
ance to humidity and do not use it outdoors.
Should liquids enter the housing, unplug the
appliance from the power socket immediately
and arrange for it to be repaired by a qualified
technician.
• Never use the appliance near water, particularly
not near sinks, baths or other vessels.
.
The proximity of moisture presents a risk, even
when the appliance is switched off. After use,
always remove the plug from the power socket.
As additional protection, the installation of a
faulty-current protection unit with an activation
power rating of not more than 30 mA is recom-
mended for the power circuit in the bathroom.
Ask your electrician for advice.
• Unplug the hair dryer from the power socket if
defective operation is apparent and before
cleaning it.
• To disconnect, pull only on the plug itself, not
on the cable.
• Do not wrap the power cable around the hair
dryer and protect the cable from damage.
• To avoid the risk of personal injury, arrange for
damaged power cables to be exchanged by
specialists before continuing to use the appliance.
• Do not pinch or squeeze the power cable and
lay it in such a way that no one can tread on or
trip over it.
• Do not use extension cables.
• Never touch the hair dryer, the power cable or
the plug with wet hands.
• Separate the hair dryer from the power source
immediately after use. The appliance is comple-
tely free of electrical power only when you
unplug it .
• You are not permitted to open or repair the
housing of the hair dryer. Should you do so, the
safety of the appliance may be compromised
and the warranty becomes void. Arrange for the
hair dryer to be serviced and repaired only by
qualified specialists.
