No cleaning of living beings or plants! 

Operation of the unit by authorized and instructed staff only. 
Observe the instructions given in the manual. 

For safety reasons, the present unit must be connected to a 
correctly grounded socket only. The technical details indicated 
on the nameplate must correspond with the available mains 
connection details, in particular those of the mains voltage and 
current connected value. 

For purposes of maintenance and care of the unit, in case of 
suspected humidity inside the unit or in case of malfunctions 
and after operation pull the mains plug. 
The unit must be opened by authorised specialised personnel

Risk of burning and scalding!  Depending on the operational 
period of the unit, unit surfaces, cleaning liquid, basket and 
cleaning items can heat up considerably.  

Ultrasonic units can produce annoying sounds.  
Wear personal ear protection devices when working close to an 
ultrasonic unit which is operated without cover. 

Do not reach inside the cleaning liquid or touch sound-carrying 
parts (tank, basket, cleaning items, etc.) during operation. 

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damages on 
persons, equipment or cleaning items caused by improper use. 
The operator is responsible for the instruction of the operating
