ing information before contacting after-sales service. This will avoid unneces-
sary costs.

Incorrect repairs are dangerous.

Repairs to the appliance should only be carried out by trained specialist
staff.

Only use genuine spare parts when repairing the appliance.

If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, the manufacturer's Customer Service or a similarly qualified
person in order to prevent any risk.
