Q Safety
Safety advice
This safety advice is an important part of these operat-
ing instructions and must be observed every time elec-
trical devices are used. The advice and instructions will
help you to avoid risk to life, accidents and damage to
property. Therefore you must read carefully through the
following information concerning safety and proper use.
RISK OF LOSS OF LIFE AND
ACCIDENT TO INFANTS AND
CHILDREN! Never leave children
unsupervised with the packaging materials or
the device. There is a risk of suffocation and
loss of life from electric shock. Children often un-
derestimate the dangers associated with electri-
cal devices. Always keep children away from
the device.
This appliance may be used by children age 8
years and up, as well as by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capacities, or lack-
ing experience and/or knowledge, so long as
they are supervised or instructed in the safe use
of the appliance and understand the associated
risks. Children should not be allowed to play
with the appliance. Cleaning and user mainte-
nance should not be performed by children
without supervision.
Keep the device away from rain or moisture.
Water entering an electrical device increases
the risk of electric shock.
Do not use the lead for any purpose for which
it was not intended, e.g. to carry the device or
to pull the plug out of the 12 V socket. Keep
the lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts of the device. Damaged or tangled
leads or plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
Damage to the device, mains lead or plug pre-
sents a risk of loss of life from electric shock.
Frequently check the condition of the device,
mains lead and plug.
Do not use a device with damaged parts. If a
dangerous situation arises pull out the plug from
the socket immediately.
Never open up the device.
Always have any repairs carried out or replace-
ment parts fitted at the service centre or by an
electrical equipment repair specialist.
When not in use always ensure that electrical
devices are kept out of reach of children. Do
not let anyone use the device if he or she is not
familiar with it or has not read the instructions
and advice. Electrical devices are dangerous
when they are used by inexperienced people.
