SPECIAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• The appliance or cord must
not be placed in water or
any other liquid. If you drop
the appliance in water by
accident, or it gets wet in
any other way, you must
immediately remove the
plug from the socket and
get an authorised repairer
to examine the appliance
before you use it again.
• It is extremely important
that you follow these
instructions, as water in the
appliance could give rise to
fatal electric shocks.
• Do not use the appliance
when your hands are wet,
when the floor is wet or
when the appliance itself is
wet. Never touch the plug
with wet or damp hands.
• Do not let the cord hang
over the edge of a table/
counter. Keep it away from
hot objects and naked
flames and make sure that
it never comes into contact
with the hot parts of the
appliance during use.
• The appliance gets hot very
quickly and takes a long
time to cool down again.
Only touch the appliance by
the handle. Never place the
appliance next to hot objects
(e.g. cookers or ovens) or
in the vicinity of flammable
materials (e.g. curtains).
• Make sure there is sufficient
ventilation around the
appliance. There should be
at least 35 cm of space on
all sides of the appliance.
• Make sure not to cover the
appliance’s air intake or
blower, as this may cause
the appliance to overheat!
• Be aware that the appliance
may emit very hot steam or
grease splashes when in use
and particularly when opened.
