use the device in the immediate vicinity of water - for exam-

ple near a bath tub, a swimming pool or in a damp cellar.

• The appliance is designed exclusively for private use and

for the envisaged purpose. This appliance is not t for com-

• Only connect the device at a properly installed plug socket.

Pay attention that the specied voltage corresponds to the

voltage of the plug socket.

• When using external mains supply, pay attention to the cor-

rect polarity and voltage. Always place the batteries in the

• Assemble the device in such a way that the available venti-

lation openings are not covered.

• Never open the housing of the device. Incorrect repairs can

constitute a considerable risk for the user. Should the device

become damaged, in particular the mains supply cable, do not

operate the device any longer, but rather have it repaired by an

expert. Check the mains supply cable regularly for damage.

• For safety reasons a broken or damaged mains lead may

The lightning symbol should advise the user of parts

in the inside of the device which carry dangerously

high voltage levels.

The symbol with an exclamation mark should advise

the user of important operation or maintenance

instructions in the accompanying documentation.

Under no circumstances should these safety switches be

bypassed or manipulated, as this could result in a danger of
