1 Safety instructions
1.4 Regarding the power supply
„
The appliance is operated with electrical
power which means there is in principle a risk
of electric shock. Pay particular attention to
the following:
- Never touch the mains plug with wet
hands.
- If you want to pull the mains plug out of
the socket then always pull directly on the
plug. Never pull on the power cable as it
could break.
- Never immerse the appliance in water or
other fluids and keep it away from rain
and moisture.
- Make sure that the power cable is not
bent, caught or run over, and that it does
not come into contact with heat sources.
Arrange in such a way that it cannot be
tripped over it.
- Before connecting to the power supply,
make sure that the electrical voltage stat-
ed on the type plate matches the voltage
of your plug socket. Only use plug sockets
with a grounding contact.
- Use only safety-checked, single-plug ex-
tension cables (not multi-plug sockets)
which are designed for the power con-
sumption of the appliance.
- Only fill up the water tank after completing
cleaning and when the mains plug is
pulled out.
