Should a battery ever be swallowed, you MUST
call for medical assistance IMMEDIATELY.

To avoid potentially fatal electric shocks:

• Connect the appliance only to correctly installed
and properly earthed power sockets. Ensure that
the rating of the local power supply tallies com­pletely with the details given on the rating plate of
the appliance.

• Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet
