DANGER! Risk of electric shock ~ Never put the device into operation if there are visible damages to the device, the power unit or the cable or if the device has been dropped before. Do not use the device again, but have it checked by a specialist work- shop. ~ Never open the casing of the device or power unit. ~ Connect the cable to the device before plugging the power unit into a wall socket. ~ Only connect the power unit to a properly installed, easily accessible wall socket, the voltage of which cor- responds to the specifications on the rating plate. The wall socket must continue to be easily accessible after the device is plugged in. ~ Ensure that the cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or hot surfaces. ~ Ensure that the cable is not trapped or crushed. ~ When removing the power unit from the wall socket, always pull the power unit and never the cable. ~ Pull the power unit out of the wall socket, … …if there is a fault, …before connecting the device to the power unit, …before you clean the device and …during thunderstorms. ~ In order to fully disconnect from the power supply, the mains plug must be removed from the socket. Even when switched off, a small amount of electricity is con- sumed when the mains plug is plugged in. ~ To avoid any risk, do not make modifications to the de- vice. Repairs must be carried out by a specialist work- shop or the Service Centre. Batteries ~ DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Be sure to ob- serve the correct polarity when inserting the battery. ~ Clean the battery and if necessary the device terminals before you insert the batteries. ~ Batteries can be life-threatening if swallowed. There- fore you should store batteries and the remote control out of the reach of young children. If a battery has been swallowed, medical assistance must be sought immediately. ~ Batteries must not be charged or reactivated by other means, nor must they be dismantled, thrown into a fire or short-circuited. ~ Remove the batteries from the remote control if you do not intend to use the remote control for a prolonged period of time, or if the battery runs out of power. The battery might leak and damage the remote control. ~ Do not subject batteries to extreme conditions, e.g. do not place the remote control on radiators or expose it to direct sunlight. Otherwise, there is an increased danger of batteries leaking. ~ If battery acid has leaked, avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. In case of contact with the acid, rinse the affected area at once with plenty of clean water and seek medical assistance immediately. WARNING! Risk of material damage ~ If you notice any irregularities (e.g. unusual noises, strange smells or smoke developing), pull the power unit out of the wall socket immediately. Do not use the device any longer. ~ If the device is moved from a cold location to a warm location, condensate may form in the device.

As furni- ture is coated with a wide array of varnishes and syn- thetics, and is also treated with different care products, it cannot be fully ruled out that some of these materials contain ingredients that could attack and soften the non-slip plastic feet. If necessary, place a non-slip mat under the device. ~ Please ensure the following when mounting on a wall: - The fixing material must be matched to the proper- ties of the wall. If necessary, use fixing material other than that supplied. - Make sure that in the installation location there are no pipes or cables in the wall (e.g. electricity, water, gas). - If necessary, have the wall mounting carried out by an expert.
