2.1. Electrical safety
a)
The plug of this device must fit into the outlet. Do not modify the plug in any
way. Original plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid touching grounded parts, such as pipes, heaters, ovens, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded and touches the device while exposed to direct rain, wet pavement,
or while working in a damp environment. If water enters the device, there is
an increased risk of damage to the unit and electric shock.
c)
Do not touch the device with wet or damp hands.
d)
Do not use the cord in an unintended manner. Never use it to carry the device
or to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the cord away from heat sources,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e)
If you cannot avoid using the product in a wet environment, use a residual
current device (RCD) to connect it to electrical mains. Using an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
f)
Do not use the device if the power cord is damaged or shows signs of wear. A
damaged power cord should be replaced by a qualified electrician or the
manufacturer's service department.
g)
To avoid electric shock, do not immerse the cable, plug, or the device itself in
water or other liquid. Do not use the appliance on wet surfaces.
h)
CAUTION – DANGER TO LIFE! When cleaning or using the appliance, never
immerse it in water or other liquids.
i)
Do not use the appliance in rooms with very high humidity / in the immediate
vicinity of water tanks!
j)
