a) Persons / Product
• The mains outlet must be located near to the device and be easily accessible.
• As power supply, only use the supplied mains adapter.
• Only connect the power adapter to a normal mains socket connected to the public supply.
Before plugging in the power adapter, check whether the voltage stated on the power adapter
complies with the voltage of your electricity supplier.
• Never connect or disconnect power adapters if your hands are wet.
• Never unplug the power adapter from the mains socket by pulling on the cable; always use
the grips on the plug.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the cable is not pinched, kinked or damaged
by sharp edges.
• Always lay the cables so that nobody can trip over or become entangled in them. This poses
a risk of injury.
• For safety reasons, disconnect the power adapter from the mains socket during storms.
• If the power adapter is visibly damaged, do not touch it. Risk of fatal injury due to electric
shock! First turn off the power supply to the power outlet that the power adapter is connected
to (flip off the fuse and then turn off the residual current operated circuit breaker to disconnect
the power outlet at all phases). Now unplug the device from the power outlet. Dispose of
the power adapter in an environmentally friendly fashion, discontinue use of it immediately.
Replace it with an identical power adapter.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into a warm
one. The condensation generated could destroy the product. A wall plug transformer also
poses the risk of fatal injury due to electric shock! Allow the device to reach room temperature
before connecting and using it. This may take several hours.
• Never pour liquids over electric devices and never place liquid-filled objects near the device.
If liquid or an object enters the interior of the device nevertheless, first power down the
respective socket (e.g. switch off circuit breaker) and then pull the mains plug from the mains
socket. Do not operate the product anymore afterwards, but take it to a specialist workshop.

playing material for children.

moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it
from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can
damage the product.

to the product.
