4.3 General information
• Please read these user instructions
carefully before use. They are a
constituent part of the appliance and
must be kept to hand at all times.
• Use the appliance only for the purpose
described (see “1.1 Intended purpose”
on page 3).
• To prevent damage, check that the
mains voltage required (see type plate
on the appliance) is compatible with
your mains voltage.
• Please note that any claim under the
warranty or for liability will be invalid if
accessories are used that are not
recommended in these user instructions,
or if original spare parts are not used for
repairs. This also applies to repairs
undertaken by unqualified persons. You
will find the service address in “Service
Centre” on page 12.
• If the appliance should develop a fault
during the warranty period, it may only
be repaired by our Service Centre.
Otherwise all claims under warranty are
null and void. You will find the service
address in “Service Centre” on
page 12.
• To ensure you can intervene promptly if
a fault occurs, never leave the appliance
unsupervised during operation.
• Check that the power socket is easily
accessible since the appliance does not
have an On/Off switch.
4.4 Protection against electric shock
Warning! The following safety
information is intended to protect
you against electric shock.
• The appliance must not under any
circumstances be used if it is damaged.
Have the device repaired in such cases
by a qualified specialist. You will find the
service address in “Service Centre” on
page 12.
• If the mains cable for this appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or a person with similar
qualifications in order to avoid a
hazard.
• Water or other liquids must never be
allowed to enter the appliance. For this
reason:
– never use it outdoors
– never immerse it in liquids
– never place liquid-filled objects, e.g.
pans, on the appliance
– never use in very humid environments.
If liquid should enter the appliance,
unplug the mains plug immediately and
have the appliance repaired by a
qualified technician. You will find the
service address in “Service Centre” on
page 12.
• The appliance must be connected up to
a mains socket with earthing contact.
• Avoid using extension cables. An
extension cable may only be used under
very specific conditions:
– the extension cable must be suitable
for the current rating of the appliance;
– the extension cable must be routed
across surfaces or the floor (not
allowed to hang in mid air); ensure
the cable is out of the reach of
children and does not pose a tripping
hazard;
– never use a damaged extension
cable;
– do not connect any other appliances
to the mains socket as this could
overload the mains supply (do not use
multi-sockets).
• Do not touch the appliance, the mains
cable or the mains plug with wet hands.
