DANGER! Risk of electric shock due to moisture
Even after the appliance has been switched off at the main switch, the elec-
trical parts continue to conduct current, as is the case with most electrical
appliances. Because water conducts electricity very well, it is particularly
important to comply with the following safety instructions!
~
The appliance must only be used indoors.
~
Protect the appliance from moisture, water drops and water splashes.
~
The appliance, the cable and the mains plug must not be immersed in water
or any other liquids.
~
If liquid gets into the appliance, disconnect the mains plug immediately.
Have the appliance checked before using it again.
~
If the appliance has fallen into water, pull out the mains plug immediately,
and only then remove the device from the water. Do not use the appliance
again, and have it checked by a specialist workshop. (In the case of a floor or
ceiling-mounted appliance (not shown), disconnect the power supply at the
breaker switch and secure it against being switched back on.)
~
Never touch the appliance with wet hands.
DANGER! Risk of electric shock
~
Only operate the wall-mounted version using a properly earthed protective
contact power socket.
~
Do not use the appliance if the appliance or the power cable has any visible
damage, or if the appliance has previously been dropped.
~
Lay the power cable such that no one can step on it, get caught on it, or trip
over it.
~
Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed and easily accessible
power socket whose voltage corresponds to the specifications on the type
plate. The power socket must still be easily accessible after connection.
~
Make sure that the power cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or hot
spots. Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance (danger! risk of ca-
ble break!).
~
Ensure that the power cable cannot be trapped or crushed.
~
To pull the mains plug out of the power socket, always pull on the mains plug,
and never on the power cable.
~
Disconnect the mains plug from the power socket …
… after every use,
… if there is a fault,
… when you are not using the appliance,
… before you clean the appliance and
… during thunderstorms.
~
In order to avoid any hazards, do not make modifications to the appliance.
You also must not replace the power cable yourself. Only have repairs carried
out by a specialist workshop or at the Service Centre.
~
Never attempt to remove dust or foreign objects from inside the appliance
using a pointed object (e.g. with a tail comb).
