Danger of Electric Shock and Fire
■
The device should only be connected to a properly installed plug socket with safety
contacts. The plug socket must also be readily accessible after connection so that
the connection to the mains can quickly be isolated. The mains voltage must match
the technical data of the device. Only use suitable extension cables whose technical
data is the same as that of the device.
■
Lay the cable in such a way that it does not become squashed or bent and does
not come into contact with hot surfaces (this also applies to the hot surfaces of the
device!).
■
Never immerse the device, mains cable or plug in water or other liquids and ensure
that they cannot fall into water or become wet.
■
Should the device fall into water, switch off the power supply immediately. Do not at-
tempt to pull the device out of the water while it is still connected to the mains power!
■
Never touch the device, mains cable or plug with wet hands when these components
are connected to the mains power.
■
Switch off the device and pull the mains plug out of the plug socket if an error occurs
during operation or before a thunderstorm.
■
Always pull the plug and never the mains cable.
■
Use the device only in closed rooms.
■
Do not use the device in rooms containing easily ignitable dust or poisonous and
explosive fumes.
■
Do not operate the device in a very damp environment or in the vicinity of combustible
material.
Avoiding Damage to Material, Property and the Device
■
Maintain a suf
fi
cient distance from heat sources such as hobs or ovens in order not
to damage the device. Do not place any naked
fl
ames, e.g. burning candles, in the
immediate vicinity of the device, cable or plug.
■
Always place the device on a dry, level,
fi
rm and heat-resistant surface..
■
Do not allow the cable to hang over the edge of tables or kitchen counters. Others
may become caught and pull the device down.
■
Only use the device if all components have been inserted correctly and the water tank
is
fi
lled correctly! The amount of water must be between the bottom and top marking
of the water level indicator.
■
Do not pour milk or other liquids into the water tank. Only ever use drinking water!
■
Use only the accessories included in the items supplied or recommended by the
manufacturer.
■
Do not place the device below kitchen wall units or similar cupboards. The rising
steam could cause damage to them!
■
Do not drop the device or allow it to be knocked violently.
■
Do not pull or carry the device by the cable.
■
Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, wide temperature variations,
moisture, wet conditions or direct sunlight.
■
Do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the device. These can
damage the surface.
