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 operate
the appliance if
■
it exhibits visible damage, e.g. the con-
nector cable is defective, the control
panel is cracked or the door function
is impaired.
■
it starts smoking or there is a smell of
burning.
■
it makes unfamiliar noises.
In these cases, you should pull the mains
plug out of the socket or switch off/un-
screw the fuse and have the appliance
repaired (see “Service” on page EN-39).
■
The appliance corresponds to protec-
tion class I and may only be connect-
ed to a plug with a protective conduc-
tor that has been properly installed.
Ensure that the voltage is correct
when connecting it. More detailed in-
formation about this can be found on
the nameplate.
■
If the mains plug is no longer ac-
cessible after connecting it, an all-
pole disconnecting device complying
with overvoltage category III must
be connected into the house wiring
with a contact gap of at least 3 mm;
consult a qualifi ed professional if nec-
essary (see “Service” on page EN-39).
■
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 can 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.
