REPAIRS / DISPOSAL
•
Repairs to all electric devices (including replacement of the power cable) may only be per-
formed by instructed experts. Carrying out inappropriate repairs voids the warranty and no
liability shall be accepted.
•
If the power cable has become damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similary qualiied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
•
Never operate the device if the cable or the plug is damaged, after the device has malfunc-
tioned, if it has been dropped or if it has been damaged in any other way (i.e. with cracks or
breakages to the housing).
•
Do not use any sharp, abrasive objects or corrosive chemicals.
•
Disable devices that are to be discarded immediately (by cutting of the power cable) and dis-
pose of them at an appropriate waste collection centre.
•
Do not dispose of electrical devices in the household refuse. Use the oicial recycling collection
centres, where available.
•
If electrical devices are disposed of in an unregulated way, the efects of weathering can cause
hazardous substances to contaminate the groundwater and the food-chain or this can result in
a burden on lora and fauna for years to come.
