Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an extension
lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).

Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products
containing propellants (e.g. spray

produce sparks which could present a
fire hazard. Flammable compounds
could explode.
~
Do not use any electrical equipment
in this appliance. Danger of sparking
and explosion.
~
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals, as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become
porous with time.
~
Do not block the ventilation gaps in
the appliance as this would impair the
efficiency of the appliance, increase the
electricity consumption and could
cause damage to the appliance.
~
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges (ambient
temperatures), and should not be used
outside this range. The climate range
for your appliance is stated on the data
plate inside the appliance.
Installing it in a room with too low an
ambient temperature, e.g. a garage,
can lead to the appliance switching off
for longer periods so that it cannot
maintain the required temperature.
~
Do not use a steam-cleaning
appliance to clean this appliance.
Steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
