3.3 Dangers that can be caused by the device

3.3.1 Danger from electrical current
DANGER
Mortal danger from electrical current!
Mortal danger can result from contact with current-carrying conductors or components!
Only permit repairs to the clipper to be made by authorised
►
dealers or the factory customer service department; this applies
especially to the replacement of a damaged power cord on the
charger.
Keep moisture away from the clippers. It can lead to short cir-
►
cuits. If you suspect that moisture has penetrated the device, do
not switch it on again and take it to a repair shop.
Never clip wet animals.
►
Never submerge the clipper in water or other liquids.
►
► Always disconnect the charger's power cord from the mains by pulling the plug, not
the cord.
► Before every use, check the clipper for externally visible damage. Do not operate a
damaged clipper.
► Only ever insert the charger's electrical plug into an undamaged socket.
► Never wrap the power cable around the clipper and keep it away from hot surfaces
and objects.
► Before plugging in the charger, compare the electrical connection data (voltage and
frequency) on the nameplate with that of your electric mains. These data must be
identical so that no damage occurs to the device.When in doubt, ask your specialised
electrical dealer..
► Do not, under any circumstances, open the housing of the clipper.
If voltage-bearing connectors are disturbed or the electrical and mechanical construc-
tion is modified, there is risk of electric shock.
► Only clean the clipper when dry, using a brush or the enclosed cleaning brush.
► Always switch the clipper off before working on it and remove the battery from the
device.
► Only use original batteries.
► Do not expose the charger and the batteries to direct sunlight or humidity.

CAUTION
Proceed with caution when working.
Avoid any contact with the moving clipping blades.
Do not touch the area around the clipping blade while it is still plugged into a power
source, even when the equipment is turned off. For work on the clipping blade/clipping
head, always disconnect the electrical power first.
CAUTION
When clipping, oil the clipping blades and clipping head through the lubrication ope-
ning provided for this purpose at least every 15 minutes so that the blades do not run
dry.
CAUTION
Only use original batteries.
Do not throw the batteries into fire or expose them to high temperatures. Risk of
explosion.
Only use undamaged batteries.
Do not expose the batteries and charger to direct sunlight or humidity.
Never short circuit the batteries. Overheating caused by short-circuiting can cause the
battery to set on fire.
Never open the batteries. Leaking liquid caused by incorrect use can cause skin irri-
tation. Avoid contact with the liquid. Rinse off any liquid immediately. If the liquid gets
into your eyes, rinse your eyes out immediately for 10 minutes with water and consult
a doctor without delay.
