2.1. Electrical safety
a) The plug of this unit must fit into the outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.
Original plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid touching grounded parts, such as pipes, heaters, ovens, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded and touches the unit exposed to direct rain, wet pavement, and
operation in a humid environment. If water enters the unit, there is an
increased risk of damage to the unit and electric shock.
c) Do not touch the unit with wet or damp hands.
d) Do not use the cord in an unintended manner. Never use it to carry the unit or
to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the cord away from heat sources, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e) If you cannot avoid using the unit in a wet environment, use a residual current
unit (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) Do not use the unit if the power cord is damaged or shows signs of wear. A
damaged power cord should be replaced by a qualified electrician or the
manufacturer's service department.
g) To avoid electric shock, do not immerse the cable, plug, or unit itself in water
or other liquid. Do not use the unit on wet surfaces.
h) CAUTION - THREAT TO LIFE! When cleaning or using the unit, never immerse it
in water or other liquids.
i) Do not allow the machine to get wet. Risk of electric shock!

accidents. Be foresighted, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when using the unit.
b) Do not use the unit in an explosive area, for example in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
c) If you find any damage or irregularities in the operation of the unit,
immediately turn it off and report it to an authorized person.
d) If you have any doubts as to whether the unit is working properly or if it is
damaged, contact the manufacturer's service department.
e) Only the manufacturer's service department can repair the unit. Do not carry
out repairs yourself!
