Safety notes
General
At
Schaerer Ltd.
, the highest degree of safety is one of the most important product features. The effective-
ness of the safety devices is guaranteed only if the following instructions are observed to prevent injuries
and health hazards:
•
Read the Operating instructions carefully before using the device.
• Do not touch any hot machine parts!
• Do not use the coffee machine if it is not working properly or is damaged.
•
Under no circumstances may the installed safety devices be modified!
Health hazard!
Children and persons under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication or those with physical, sensory
or mental impairments may not use the device or may use it only under supervision.
Health hazard!
Children are often unaware of the dangers which can result from handling electrical devices improperly.
Never leave children unattended with electrical devices.
Health hazard!
Place the device on a stable, horizontal surface. Do not set it down on hot or warm surfaces. Choose a
location that is not easily accessible to children or pets.
Caution, electrocution!
•
Do not pinch or pull the power cord over corners or sharp edges, and do not place it or
hang it over hot objects. When unpacking the device, please check if the mains voltage cor-
responds to the device‘s voltage stated on the serial plate. (Refer to „
Technical data
“,
page 66).
• Connect the device to a grounded socket only. For safety reasons, we recommend using a residual
current device (RCD - available in specialty electronics shops). To protect persons from fire, electrical
shock and/or injury, never immerse the power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
• Never operate a device with a faulty supply pipe. Should an additional supply pipe be required as an
extension, it must also be in flawless condition and attached in such a way that no one can trip over the
supply pipe. Keep the supply pipe out of the reach of children and pets. Never insert the power plug into
the socket if it is wet, and never touch the plug with wet hands.
• Disconnect the power cord if the device shall not be used for a longer period of time.
• Do not leave the device switched on if unattended. For reasons of safety and power efficiency, we
recommend switching the device off at the main power switch over night and during longer periods of
non-use (not possible with the coin tester option). For shorter periods of non-use, the device can be
switched to Stand-by mode via the
button. For devices with a fixed water supply, the tap must
be closed.
Health hazard!
The coffee machine must be installed by the operator so that there are no impediments to care and main-
tenance. In both self service and full service applications, trained personnel must supervise the machine
in order to ensure that the care instructions are observed and the personnel is available for questions
regarding use.
Caution!
The coffee machine is not suitable for installation on a surface where a water jet could be used.
Caution!
The machine is not suitable for outdoor use. Never expose the device to outside weather conditions such
as rain, snow, frost, etc.
Health hazard!
Never allow live electrical parts to come into contact with water. Never spray the device with water or any
other liquid. Never immerse the device in water or any other liquid. Do not operate the machine with wet
hands.
Risk of burns!
Be careful when touching the steam injector, as it becomes hot during operation. Use the specially de-
signated grips. Do not touch any hot surfaces. Allow the device to cool before fitting or dismantling any
parts. The same applies to cleaning (risk of burns).
