can damage the product.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are
connected to the product.
• The device was constructed according to protection class II. Only one proper
contact power socket of the public power supply may be used as as voltage
source.
• Never pour liquids over electric devices and never place liquid-filled objects near
the device. If liquid or an object enters the interior of the device nevertheless,
first power down the respective socket (e.g. switch off circuit breaker) and then
pull the mains plug from the mains socket. Do not operate the product anymore
afterwards, but take it to a specialist workshop.
• The mains outlet must be located near to the device and be easily accessible.
• Never pull the mains plug from the socket by pulling at the cable. Always pull it
from the mains socket using the intended grips.
• Unplug the mains plug from the mains socket if you do not use the device for an
extended period of time.
• For safety reasons, always unplug the device in case of a thunderstorm.
• Make sure that the mains cable is not squeezed, bent, damaged by sharp edges
or put under mechanical stress. Avoid excessive thermal stress on the mains
cable from extreme heat or cold. Do not modify the mains cable. Otherwise the
mains cable may be damaged. A damaged mains cable can cause a deadly
electric shock.
• Do not touch the mains cable if it is damaged. First, power down the respective
mains socket (e.g. via the respective circuit breaker) and then carefully pull the
mains plug from the mains socket. Never use the product if the mains cable is
