IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Warning: When the appliances are used in a bathroom, unplug
it after use since the proximity of water presents a hazard even
when the appliances are switched off.
When using electrical appliances, especially when children are
present, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER
DANGER – As with most electrical appliances, electrical parts are
electrically live even when the switch is off.
To reduce the risk of death by electric shock:
• Always unplug it immediately after using.
• Do not place or store an appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a
bath or sink.
• Do not use while bathing.
• Do not place or drop into water or other liquid.
• If an appliance falls into water, “unplug it” immediately.
Do not reach into the water.
For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD)
with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA is advisable in
the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom. Ask your electrical contractor
for advice.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, ELECTROCUTION, AND
FIRE, OR INJURY TO PERSONS.
• Do not use the straightener on wet hair.
• An appliance should never be left unattended when plugged in to a
power outlet.
• These appliances are not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliances by a person responsible
for their safety. Keep the appliances and the power cords away from
the edge of table or countertops and out of reach of children and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.
