Cautions before use
For indoor use only.
Always keep the unit in vertical position. If the device is not stable and
upright,, water from the tank can get into the interior of the device and
damage something or cause a dangerous situation!
Before moving, cleaning or perform maintenance on the unit, first switch
off, then unplug and empty the water tank. Pull on the plug to remove
from the socket, never pull on the cord.
Leave the unit to stand for one hour before connecting to the mains
supply after transport or when it has been tilted (max. 45°, e.g. during
cleaning).
Keep air-intake or output openings clean and unobstructed. Prevent
foreign objects or fingers from entering the equipment via the venting or
exhaust openings as this may lead to electric shock, fire or damage.
The supply voltage and utility frequency, specified on the machine, need
to match those of the socket that is used. The electrical installation
needs to be protected by an earth leakage circuit breaker (max. 30 mA).

Fully extend the cord before plugging in. Do not run the cord underneath
carpeting; do not cover it with mats, carpet strips, or similar and make
sure it is not placed in any passageways. Make sure the cord cannot be
stepped on and that no furniture is placed on top of it. Prevent that the
cable gets hot. Do not lead the cord around sharp corners and do not
roll it up too tightly after use!
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an approved
service representative or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard.

control panel.
