Note:
Some parts of the appliance become very hot during operation. To avoid burns, do not touch these
parts.
● Do not use an extension cable. Place the appliance where the power wall socket is easily accessible, so
that in the event of an emergency the plug can be quickly withdrawn.
Note:
Never insert your hands into the binding shaft. There is a risk of being burnt!
Risk of electric shocks
● Connect the appliance to a mains power socket supplying a voltage of 220 - 240 V ~ /50 Hz.
● Do not operate the appliance if the power cable or power plug is damaged.
● Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables to be replaced at once by qualified technicians or our
Customer Service Department.
● Never immerse the appliance in water. Just wipe it with a damp cloth.
● Do not expose the appliance to rain and never use it in a humid or wet environment.
● Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet during operation.
● Unplug the appliance immediately after use. The appliance is free of electricity only when you remove the
power plug from the power socket.
● Do not open the casing or attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Should you do so, appliance safety
can no longer be assured and the warranty will become void.
Risk of fire!
● Do not use the appliance in the vicinity of hot surfaces.
● Do not place the appliance in locations exposed to direct sunlight. If you do, this could lead to overheating
and cause irreparable damage.
● Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use.
● Do not use an external timing switch or a separate remote control system to operate the appliance.
Caution - property damage!
● Never attempt to bind flammable, heat-sensitive and/or meltable materials and do not bind drawings
made on temperature-sensitive paper or material that could undergo changes in color or quality when
subjected to heat.
● Fundamentally, never bind valuable or unique documents. Although this thermal binder satisfies all
relevant safety norms and standards, functional errors can never be completely discounted – as with all
electrical appliances. Functional errors with the appliance could cause damage to the documents being
bound.
Cleaning and care
Risk of potentially fatal electrical shock:
● Always remove the plug from the mains power socket before you clean the appliance!
● Never open the housing of the appliance. There are no user-serviceable elements inside.
● Never submerse the appliance into water or other liquids!
