To avoid life-threatening
electric shocks:
•
Connect the appliance only to
correctly installed and properly
earthed power sockets. Ensure that the
rating of the local power supply tallies
completely with the details given on
the rating plate of the appliance.
•
Make sure that the power cable
never becomes wet or damp during
operation. Lay the cable such that it
does not get clamped or otherwise
damaged.
•
Arrange for defective power plugs
and/or cables to be replaced at
once by qualified technicians or our
Customer Service Department.
•
Arrange for customer service to
repair or replace connecting cables
and/or appliances that are not
functioning properly or have been
damaged.
•
Only use the appliance in dry rooms.
NEVER submerse the appliance in
water. Wipe it only with a slightly
damp cloth.
•
Make sure that fluids or any other
objects do not get inside the device.
•
Do not place water-filled receptacles
(e. g. flower vases) on the appliance.
•
Position the appliance close to an
electrical wallsocket. Make sure that
the wall socket is easily accessible.
•
To avoid the risks of tripping, do not
use an extension cable. In the event
of danger, the plug must be quickly
and easily accessible.
•
You may not open the housing or repair
the appliance yourself. Should you
do so, appliance safety can no
longer be assured and the warranty
will become void. Repairs are to be
carried out exclusively by a specialist
firm or the service centre.
