WARNING
Risk of fire due to a short circuit
A short circuit in the device can cause a fire. In order to re-
duce the risk of fire in such an event, follow the instructions
below:
• Do not operate the compressor close to readily flam-
mable objects such as curtains, tablecloths, or paper.
• Do not operate the compressor in areas where there is a
risk of explosion or in the presence of oxidising gases
(e.g., oxygen, nitrous oxide, flammable anaesthetics).
WARNING
Danger of death by electrocution from a faulty device!
If the device has a fault, a person may come into contact
with live parts, resulting in the danger of electric shock, for
example.
• Check the compressor housing, the power cord and the
power plug for damage every time before use.
• Only use the compressor if all components are intact.
WARNING
Danger of electrocution due to damp hands
Liquids can conduct electricity, thereby posing a risk of
electric shock.
• Never take hold of the power cord or the power plug with
damp or wet hands.
