Risk of electrical shocks!
Risk of fire!
• Connect the appliance only to correctly installed
and properly earthed power sockets. Ensure that
the rating of the local power supply tallies com-
pletely with the details given on the rating plate
of the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance near hot surfaces.
• Do not locate the appliance in places exposed
to direct sunlight. If you do, it may overheat and
become irreparably damaged.
•
Do not locate the kitchen radio directly above
hotplates. The kitchen radio may be damaged.
There is a danger of fire!
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• Arrange for Customer Services to repair or replace
connecting cables and/or appliances that are
not functioning properly or have been damaged.
• NEVER submerse the appliance in water.
Wipe it only with a slightly damp cloth.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use.
• Never cover the ventilation slots of the appliance
while it is being used.
• Do not place unprotected fire sources, such as
candles, on or adjacent to the appliance.
• Do not expose the appliance to rain and never
use it in a humid or wet environment.
Injury hazard!
• Keep children away from the power cable and
the appliance. Children frequently underestimate
the dangers of electrical appliances.
• Always take hold of the power cable by the plug.
Do not pull on the cable itself and never touch the
power cable with wet hands, this could result in eit-
her a short circuit or you receiving an electric shock.
• Do not place the device, furniture or anything else
on the power cable and ensure that it does not
become clamped/trapped.
• Never tie knots in the power cable and do not bind
it to other cables. Place the power cable so that no
one can stumble over it.
• Provide for a safe location for the appliance.
• Do not operate the appliance if it has fallen or is
damaged. Have the appliance checked and
repaired if necessary by qualified technicians.
• Keep batteries away from children. Children can
put batteries into their mouths and swallow them.
If a battery is swallowed medical assistance must
be sought IMMEDIATELY.
• Make sure that the power cable does not become
wet during operation.
Note:
• You are not permitted to open the device housing
or repair the device. If the housing is opened,
you run the risk of receiving a potentially fatal
electric shock and the warranty lapses.
Some aggressive furniture finishes can have a
destructive influence on the device's rubber feet.
If necessary, place the device on a nonslip pad.
• Protect the appliance against drip and spray
water. Do not place any water-filled vessels
(e.g. flower vases) on or adjacent to the appliance.
Thunderstorms!
Equipment connected to a power supply can
be damaged during a thunderstorm.
You should therefore always remove the plug
from the power socket when there is a storm.

Notice regarding electrical power
surges (EFT / electrical fast transient)
and electrostatic discharges:
In a case of malfunction due to an electrical
fast transient (power surge) and/or electrostatic
discharge, the appliance must be returned to
default settings in order to re-establish normal
operation. Possibly the power supply must be
separated and then reconnected. The batteries
(if present) must be removed and then reinserted.
