Due to the intervention of the system voltage and
overheating inspection device
(thermostat on cooling bodies), the source of current is off.

possible. Protect the injured person from other injuries and
calm him/her down.

Disposal
The disposal instructions are based on icons placed on the
appliance or its package. The description of the meanings
can be found in the “Marking“ section.
Transport package disposal
The package protects the appliance against damage
during transport. Packing materials are usually chosen
depending on their environmental friendliness and disposal
method and can therefore be recycled. Returning the
package to material circulation saves raw materials and
reduces waste disposal costs. Parts of packages (e.g.
foils, styropor®) can be dangerous to children.
Risk of
suffocation!
Keep parts of packages away from children
and dispose them as soon as possible.
