Important Safeguards for all Electrical Appliances
• Always operate the appliance near a suitable wall power outlet and connect the appliance
directly to the power outlet. Do not use any extension cords or a multiple desk outlet.
• Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corresponds to the voltage
requirements of the appliance (220/230 V, 50 Hz, AC). Always connect the
appliance directly to a mains power supply wall socket with protective conductor
(earth/ground) connected properly. The installation of a residual current safety switch
with a maximum rated residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical
circuit is strongly recommended. If in doubt, contact your local electrician for further
information.

Do not
leave the appliance unattended while connected to the power supply.
Always turn the appliance ´OFF` and
IMMEDIATELY
unplug the appliance after
operation and if it is not in use (even for a short break) and before cleaning
and/or assembling or disassembling. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the appliance
from the power outlet.
• Always handle the power cord with care.
Do not
pull or strain the power cord.
The power cord may never be knotted or squeezed.
Do not
let the power cord
hang over the edge of the table or counter. Take care not to entangle in the
power cord.
Do not
touch the appliance with wet hands to avoid risk of electric
shock.
Do not
touch the appliance, if it is damp or wet or is touching wet surfaces while
connected to the mains power supply. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance
and dry the appliance (see ‘Care and Cleaning’).
• Do not immerse the appliance or power cord in any liquids or spill any liquids on
it or place the motor on wet surfaces. Never let any liquids run into the motor or
underneath it to avoid electric shock. When liquids are spilled on the motor housing,
immediately unplug the appliance and dry the motor housing to avoid risk of
electric shock or fire.
Do not
attempt to operate the appliance, when liquids are
on or in the motor housing.
•
Never
use the appliance if the power cord, the plug or the appliance are
damaged. The appliance is likely damaged if it does not operate as intended or
liquid got into the motor housing. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance
and return the entire appliance (including all parts and accessories) to an authorised
service centre for examination and repair.
