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 use the
appliance, if it
–
shows visible signs of damage, e.g.
the supply cord is defective,
–
starts smoking or there is a smell of
burning,
–
makes unfamiliar noises.
In such cases, remove the mains plug
from the socket or unscrew/isolate
the fuse and contact our service cen-
ter (see page EN-33).
■
The appliance corresponds to pro-
tection class I and may only be
connected to a plug with a protecti-
ve conductor that has been properly
installed. When connecting the ap-
pliance, make sure that the voltage
is correct. More detailed information
about this can be found on the name-
plate.
■
To disconnect this appliance from the
power supply, pull the mains plug out
of the socket. The appliance must,
therefore, be connected to an easily
accessible socket so that it can be
quickly disconnected from the power
supply in the event of malfunction.
■
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-33).
■
When positioning the appliance, en-
sure the supply cord is not trapped
or damaged. Do not kink the supply
cord or lay it over sharp edges.
■
Do not locate multiple portable so-
cket-outlets or portable power sup-
plies at the rear of the appliance.
■
Keep the supply cord away from na-
ked fl ames and hot surfaces.
■
Always pull on the mains plug and
not the mains cable.
■
Never touch the mains plug with wet
hands.
■
Never immerse the mains cable or
plug in water or any other liquids.
■
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualifi ed
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
