• Do not place objects containing fluids,
e.g. flower vases, on the appliance.
• Do not use an extension cable. In
emergencies the power plug must be
quickly accessible.
ƽ Fire hazard!
• Do not use the appliance near hot
surfaces.
• Do not keep the appliance in places
that are exposed to direct sunlight,
otherwise it may overheat and become
irreparably damaged.
• Do not leave the appliance unatten-
ded when in use.
• Never cover the ventilation slots of the
appliance while it is switched on.
• Do not place any open fire sources,
e.g. candles, on the appliance.
ƽ Danger of injuries
•
Keep the power cable and appliance
away from children. Children frequently
underestimate the danger from electri-
cal appliances.
• Provide for a safe place for the app-
liance.
• Do not operate the appliance if it has
fallen or is damaged. Have the appli-
ance checked and repaired if necessary
by qualified technicians.
• Keep batteries away from children.
Children can put batteries into their
mouths and swallow them.
ƽ Caution!
Notice regarding surge voltages (FEO /
fast electrical overloads):
In the case of a malfunction due to fast
electrical overload (surge voltage) the
appliance must be reset (possibly the
power supply needs to be seperated and
reconnected), in order to return to normal
operation.
ƽ Electrostatic Discharge
In the case of a malfunction due to an
electrostatic discharge the appliance
must be reset (possibly the power supply
needs to be seperated and reconnected),
in order to return to normal operation.
Note: Cases of electrostatic dischar-
ge occur when one walks with pla-
stic soled shoes over carpeted floors
which also contain plastics in part.
Through the friction of the soles on
the carpet , a charge is created in the
body which discharges itself as soon
as an object suitable for conducting
electricity is touched, e.g. a door
handle or the bodywork of a vehicle.
It is sufficient to be just a few centi-
metre away from the conducting
object. Direct contact with the
object is not essential to cause a
discharge. The charge can then
discharge itself over an electric arc.
Static decay is therefore also possi-
ble through plastic housing parts.
