• The appliance should only be set up on
a firm, dry, level, inflammable surface to
prevent it from tipping over or sliding.
4.4 Protection against electric shock
Warning!
The following safety
information is intended to protect
you against electric shock.
• The appliance must not under any
circumstances be used if it is damaged.
Have the device repaired in such cases
by a qualified specialist. You will find the
service address in “Service Centre” on
page 15.
• If the mains cable for this appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or a person with similar
qualifications in order to avoid a
hazard.
• Water or other liquids must never be
allowed to enter the appliance. For this
reason:
– never use it outdoors
– never immerse it in liquids
– never place liquid-filled objects, e.g.
pans, on the appliance
– never use in very humid environments.
If liquid should enter the appliance,
unplug the mains plug immediately and
have the appliance repaired by a
qualified technician. You will find the
service address in “Service Centre” on
page 15.
• The appliance must be connected up to
a mains socket with earthing contact.
• Avoid using extension cables. An
extension cable may only be used under
very specific conditions:
– the extension cable must be suitable
for the current rating of the appliance;
– the extension cable must be routed
across surfaces or the floor (not
allowed to hang in mid air); ensure
the cable is out of the reach of
children and does not pose a tripping
hazard;
– never use a damaged extension
cable;
– do not connect any other appliances
to the mains socket as this could
overload the mains supply (do not use
multi-sockets).
• Do not touch the appliance, the mains
cable or the mains plug with wet hands.
• Always unplug the mains cable by
pulling out the plug. Never pull on the
cable to remove the plug.
• Never carry the appliance by the mains
cable.
• Ensure that the mains cable is not kinked,
twisted or crushed.
• Fully unwind the mains cable during use
to avoid overheating and scorching.
• Keep the mains cable away from hot
surfaces, such as cooker hotplates.
• If you are not going to use the appliance
for a while, remove the plug from the
wall socket. This is the only way to
ensure that the machine is completely
free of current.
4.5 Protection against the danger of fire

As the appliance
operates at high temperatures,
follow the safety instructions below

• Keep flammable objects (e.g. curtains,
paper, etc.) away from the appliance

from other objects to prevent them from
