Safety notes
This appliance corresponds to accepted
technological standards with regards
to safety and to the German Appliance
Safety Law. As manufacturers, we nev-
ertheless regard it as our duty to famil-
iarise customers with the following
safety considerations.
General safety
• This appliance may be connected only
to a power socket carrying a voltage
and frequency matching the informa-
tion on the model rating plate.
• Do not pull the cable over sharp edges,
clamp it into place or allow it to hang
down. Keep the cable away from hot
and damp areas.
• Never try to remove the plug from the
socket by pulling on the lead.
• The connecting cable of this appliance
cannot be replaced. If the cord or the
plug is damaged or defect, the appli-
ance should be discarded.
8
• Before use check that the appliance
functions properly. The appliance
should not be used if:
– the connecting cable is damaged
– the appliance shows noticeable
damage
– the appliance has been dropped
• Never wind the mains cable around the
appliance.
• The connecting cable must not come
into contact with hot appliance parts
and should never run between the
straightening plates.
• Only insert the mains plug when the
appliance is switched off.
• The installation of a residual current
circuit breaker (RCD) with a rated trig-
ger current of less than 30 mA in the
domestic power supply provides addi-
tional protection. Seek advice from a
qualified electrician.
• Repairs to this appliance may only be
carried out by qualified service engi-
neers. Considerable danger may result
from improper repairs. If repairs
become necessary, please contact the
Customer Care Department or your
authorised dealer.
• This appliance 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 con-
cerning use of the appliance by a per-
son responsible for their safety.
Child safety
• Children are not aware of the hazards
of electrical appliances. Therefore close
supervision is necessary when the
appliance is used by children.
• Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
• Packaging material, e.g. plastic bags,
should not be accessible to children.
