Notice: These devices produce magnetic fields which might
cause electronic and mechanical disturbances or damages. This
also refers to pacemakers. Please consult the manuals of medical equip-
ment for the required safety margins.
Attention: Maintenance work presents the risk of crushing the fingers due to
high magnetic forces.
For your own safety, we recommend to form a drip loop
with the connection cable to prevent any water running
along the cable from intruding into the socket. When
using a multiple socket or an external power supply
unit, position them atop the filter’s power connection.
Take the necessary precautions when handling components that can dis-
charge static electricity.
Do not clean the unit – or parts of it – in the dishwater. Not dishwater resi-
stant!
