DESK LAMP KH 4164
Intended Use
This appliance is intended for use as supplementary
illumination for desk-top areas in domestic households and only in dry rooms.
This appliance is not intended for use as sole illumination, for industrial or commercial applications or
for use in occupational areas.
Important safety instructions
To avoid potentially fatal electric
shocks:
• Protect the appliance against moisture. Use it
only in dry rooms, do not use it outdoors or
close to liquids.
• Ensure that the power plug is at all times easily
accessible, so that it can be quickly and easily
removed in the event of potential danger or risk.
• When in use, ensure that the power cable cannot become jammed/trapped or damaged in
any way. Place it such that no one can trip or
stumble over it.
• Should the power cable or the power plug
become damaged, arrange for the damaged
component to be replaced by Customer Service
before continuing to use the appliance.
• Should the appliance become damaged, immediately remove the plug from the wall socket.
Then arrange for the appliance to be checked
by Customer Services.
• After use or during extended absences, ALWAYS
remove the plug from the power socket. For as
long as the plug is inserted in the wall socket
the appliance itself is under electrical power.
To avoid the risk of fire:
• Use ONLY the type of bulb detailed in the
Technical Data. In particular, do NOT use
higher-performance bulbs or any without
a protective disc.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended at any
time when it is in use.
• Do not locate the appliance below inflammable
objects, especially not in the vicinity of curtains
and drapes.
• Maintain a minimum distance of 35 cm in all
directions to surrounding objects. Do not direct
the radiance at heat-sensitive objects.
• Do not place the appliance at locations where,
should it inadvertently tip over, it would land on
easily inflammable materials, e.g. soft furnishings,
beds, waste paper baskets etc.
• Place the appliance where it cannot be knocked
over by falling objects.
To avoid the risks of accidents and
personal injuries:
• When changing the bulb ALWAYS use the supplied suction disc. Do not attempt to change the
bulb with your bare fingers. If you do, there is
the risk of being injured on the housing edges,
by splittering glass or being burnt on hot elements.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical,
physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences in experience and/or knowledge unless they
are supervised by a person responsible for their
safety or receive from this person instruction in
how the appliance is to be used. Children should
be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
