Electrical safety
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.
■
Note that the appliance is not in-
tended to be operated by means of
an external timer or a separate re-
mote-control system.
■
Do not operate or continue to oper-
ate the appliance if
–
it shows visible signs of damage,
for example, the connection cable
is defective;
–
starts smoking or there is a burning
smell;
–
it makes unusual sounds.
In such cases, disconnect from the
power supply (switch off the circuit
breakers/unscrew the fuses) and con-
tact our service center .
■
Connection to the mains supply may
be made only by an authorised elec-
trician approved by the local energy
supply company (see “Service” chap-
ter). Unauthorised persons may not
connect the appliance to the mains
supply. You can endanger your life
and that of subsequent users! This
also applies to disconnection from
the power supply and dismantling
the old appliance.
■
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 cat-
egory III must be connected within
the house installation with at least
3 mm contact clearance.
■
Before accessing the terminals,
switch off all supply circuits and se-
cure them against being switched on
again (switch off/unscrew fuses).
■
Do not kink or pinch the supply cord
or lay it over sharp edges.
■
Do not extend or modify the mains
cable.
■
Keep the mains cable and mains plug
away from naked flames and hot sur-
faces.
■
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
■
Do not put any objects in or through
the housing openings and also make
sure that children cannot insert any
objects through them.
■
Never attempt to repair the appli-
ance yourself. You can put your own
and future users’ lives in danger. Only
authorised specialists are allowed to
carry out this repair work.
■
Never open the housing.
