2.2 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
• WARNING Read all safety information and instructions. Failure to follow the safety information
and instructions may cause electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• Ensure that no water can penetrate into the appliance. Never submerge the appliance in
water or other liquids. Never expose it to rain.
• Do not use the machine if the mains plug, mains cable or any other part of the appliance is
defective or damaged.
• Do not remove the mains plug from the socket by pulling the power cord.
• Never insert or remove the mains plug with wet hands.
• This appliance is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and/or knowledge, unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety or who has received instructions from them
on how to use the appliance. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
• Do not use any electrical devices in potentially explosive areas, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Electrical devices generate sparks, which can ignite the dust
or exhaust fumes.
• Keep children and other people away when operating an electrical appliance. Distractions can
lead to a loss of control.
• Keep the device away from rain or wetness. Water ingress into the unit increases the risk of
electric shock. This has nothing to do with the wet-suction function of vacuum cleaners, this
is about the penetration of water into the motor/electronics.
• It is forbidden to remove or modify electrical or mechanical safety devices. Do not use the
device as a pump to avoid possible damage to the motor.
2.3 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• The plugs of electrical devices must be compatible with the socket. Do not change the plug
under any circumstances. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed electrical devices.
Original plugs and the matching sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid physical contact with earthed objects, such as pipes, radiators, stoves and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body comes into contact with an earthed
object.
• Only use the cable for the purpose it is intended for. Never use the cable to carry, pull or
unplug the electrical appliance. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or intertwined cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
• When operating an electrical appliance outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for
outdoor use. Using a cable that is suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electrical
shock.
