Safety information
• This device has not been designed for use
by people (including children) with restricted
physical, sensory or intellectual abilities or
lack of experience and/or knowledge, unless
they are supervised by a responsible person (for
their own safety) or have received instructions on
how to use the device.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the device.
• In order to avoid the device being switched on
unintentionally, remove the adapter from the
mains socket after each use and before
cleaning.
• Check the device and all parts for visible
damage. The device’s safety concept can only
work if the device is in perfect condition.
• The mains adapter must always be freely
accessible so that the device can be separated
from the power supply quickly in an emergency.

Risk of electric shock!
• Only connect the device to a properly installed
and earthed mains socket. The mains voltage
must agree with that stated on the device’s
specification plate.
• Damaged adapters or mains cables should
be exchanged immediately by an authorised
technician or the Customer Service in order to
avoid risks.
• Connection cables or devices that do not work
perfectly or have been damaged should be
repaired or exchanged immediately by Customer
Services.
Never immerse the device in water!
Simply wipe it with a slightly damp cloth.
• Do not expose the device to rain or use it in a
damp or wet environment.
• Ensure that the connection cable is never wet or
damp when in use.
• You must not open or repair the device’s housing.
