Risks in handling household
electrical appliances
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■
Only use the appliance indoors. Do
not use in wet rooms or in the rain.
■
Do not operate or continue to oper-
ate the appliance, if it
–
exhibits visible damage, e.g. the
connector cable is defective, the
control panel is cracked or the door
function is impaired.
–
starts smoking or there is a smell of
burning.
–
makes unfamiliar noises.
In these cases, you should pull the
mains plug out of the socket or switch
off/unscrew the fuse and have the
appliance repaired (see “Service” on
page EN-44).
■
The appliance corresponds to pro-
tection class I and may be connect-
ed only to a socket with a protective
conductor that has been properly
installed. Ensure that the voltage is
correct when connecting it. More de-
tailed information about this can be
found on the nameplate.
■
Since all poles of the appliance can-
not be disconnected from the mains
via an accessible disconnecting de-
vice, an all-pole disconnecting device
in accordance with overvoltage cate-
gory III must be connected within the
house installation with at least 3 mm
contact clearance; consult a qualifi ed
professional if necessary (see “Ser-
vice” on page EN-44).
■
We recommend using a pulse-sensi-
tive residual-current device (RCD).
■
The appliance must only be connect-
ed to the mains after completion of
all installation and assembly work.
■
Do not put any objects in or through
the housing openings and also make
sure that children cannot insert any
objects through them.
■
Keep the appliance, the mains plug
and the mains cord away from open
fl ames and hot surfaces. The insula-
tion of the mains cord could melt.
■
Do not kink or pinch the mains cord
or lay it over sharp edges.
■
Never pull the mains plug out of the
socket by the mains cord; always hold
the mains plug itself.
■
Never touch the mains plug with wet
hands.
■
Never immerse the mains cord or plug
in water or any other liquids.
■
In the event of a fault, as well as be-
fore cleaning or maintenance, pull
out the mains plug/switch off or un-
screw the fuse.
■
Never clean the appliance with a
high-pressure cleaner or steam clean-
er.
