• If the appliance is not being used or if you are cleaning it or carrying
out maintenance or if you want to move it, first switch it off and then
take out the plug from the socket. Always move and/or transport the
appliance gently!
• In addition, when you start using the appliance, the following applies:
First insert the plug into the socket, then switch the appliance to the ON
position and only thereafter use the operating button!
• Do not use the appliance in a damp or wet environment, such as
a bathroom or laundry area, not in the area of a bath, shower or
swimming pool and do not splash water, oil or any other liquid on the
appliance.
• Wind the appliance’s electric cable completely before you put the plug
into the socket and make sure that the electric cable never comes in
contact with any hot parts of the appliance or that it becomes hot in any
other way. Never route the electric cable under a carpet, do not cover
it with mats, runners, etc. and keep the cable away from walking paths.
Make sure that the electric cable is not stepped on and that no furniture
is placed on it. Do not route the electric cable along sharp corners and
after use, do not wind it too tightly!
• Prevent the electric cable from coming in contact with oil, solvent and
sharp objects. Check the electric cable and plug regularly for damage.
Do not twist or bend the electric cable around the appliance; this can
damage the insulation!
• Try as best as possible to avoid using extension cords. If this is
unavoidable, then use a cord with sufficient capacity (minimum 3x1.5
mm²) and don’t put it close to walking paths!
• Connect the appliance only to a fixed socket. Do not use a junction box
/ power strip, etc.
• Do not move the appliance by pulling the electric cable and hold the
plug in your hand when you unplug it.
• Do not pull, warp or change the electric cable or submerge it under
water. Pulling or incorrect use of the electric cable will damage the
appliance and can result in an electric shock.
