Risks in handling household
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 has visible damage, e.g. the
power cord is defective.
■
if it starts smoking or there is a
smell of burning.
■
if it makes unfamiliar noises.
In such cases, remove the mains plug
from the socket or unscrew/isolate the
fuse and contact our service depart-
ment (see page GB-21).
■
Do not connect to an external timer
or a separate remote-controlled sys-
tem for distance monitoring and con-
trol.
■
The appliance must only be com-
pletely disconnected from the power
supply by pulling out the mains plug.
The appliance must therefore be con-
nected to an easily accessible socket
so that it can be quickly disconnected
from the power supply in the event of
breakdown.
■
If the mains plug is no longer acces-
sible after installation, an all-pole dis-
connecting device complying with
overvoltage category III must be
connected into the house wiring with
a contact gap of at least 3 mm; this
includes fuses, circuit breakers and
contactors.
