electrical appliances
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■
Only use the appliance indoors. Do
not use in wet rooms or in the rain.
■
Do not operate or continue to oper-
ate the appliance if
–
it shows visible signs of damage,
for example, the connection cable
is defective;
–
it starts smoking or there is a burn-
ing smell;
–
it makes unusual sounds.
In this case, unplug from the mains
and contact our service department
(see „Our Service Centre“ on page
GB-28).
■
The appliance corresponds to protec-
tion class I and may only be connect-
ed to a plug with a protective conduc-
tor that has been installed properly.
When connecting, make sure that it
has the right voltage. You can fi nd
more detailed information about this
on the nameplate. Connecting the
device to a socket strip or multi-plug
is not permitted, and can potentially
result in fi re.
■
If the mains plug is no longer acces-
sible after installation, an all-pole dis-
connecting device complying with
over-voltage category III must be
connected to the house wiring with a
contact gap of at least 3 mm; this in-
cludes fuses, circuit breakers and con-
tactors.
■
Take care to prevent the risk of trip-
ping when laying the mains cord.
■
Keep the mains plug and cord away
from naked fl ames and hot surfaces.
■
Do not kink or pinch the mains cord
or lay it over sharp edges.

If the mains cord of the appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, through customer ser-
