Electrical safety and cord handling
• To prevent contact with high voltage components inside, do not attempt to open the
equipment.
• Before installing this equipment, make sure your outlet voltage corresponds to the
voltage stated on the appliance rating label.
• When connecting the equipment, align the plug properly and insert it fully to prevent
electric shock.
• Only use this equipment with the cord and plug supplied, and do not overload the
power outlet.
• If the power cord is damaged, do not use the equipment. The cord must be replaced by
the manufacturer or similarly qualified personnel to avoid a hazard. Contact the
after-sales support line for advice.
Usage conditions and restrictions
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment, the cord or plug
to rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere near water or where water splashes or drips;
do not touch the plug with wet hands. In the event of water or other liquids entering the
device, unplug it immediately and clean and dry it as best as possible. Then have it
checked for damage by a qualified technician, or contact the after-sales support line.
• Do not repair the unit yourself. Only have it serviced by qualified personnel. Contact the
after-sales support line for advice.
• Unplug the unit from the power outlet after use to avoid possible damage during
electrical storms, or when the equipment will be unattended or unused for an extended
period.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch any hot surface. Do
not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and run any cords so that no one
steps on or trips over them.
• Do not run the cord near heat-producing appliances such as radiators, stoves or irons.
Excessive heat could melt insulation and expose live wires.
• Always grasp the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the unit. Pulling the cord can
damage the internal wires and may cause a fire.

locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal
position only.

overheating. To ensure proper operation, do not cover them with things such as
newspapers, tablecloths, curtains etc.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the equipment or step on it.
• Do not place objects filled with water (such as vases) or any naked flame sources (such
as lit candles, incense sticks or cigarettes) on top of the unit.
• The equipment is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the equipment by a person
responsible for their safety.
