DANGER! Risk of electric shock! Risk of injury from electric shock due to live parts. They pose a risk of electric shock or fire if an unintentional short circuit occurs. Do not place containers filled with liquid, e.g. vases, on or near the product, and protect all the parts from drips or splashes. Such containers could tip over and the liquid could impair the electrical safety of the de- vice. Never open the product housing or power supply housing and do not push objects inside the product through the slots and openings If the mains adapter, connection cable or device is damaged, immediately unplug the mains adapter from the socket. If liquid or foreign bodies get into the device, unplug the network adapter from the socket immediately. Unplug the mains adapter from the socket if you are away for a long period or there is a thunder storm.156 4.3. Power supply DANGER! Risk of electric shock! Risk of injury from electric shock due to live parts. Only connect the mains adapter to a properly in- stalled earthed mains socket (230V ~ 50Hz) that is easy to reach and close to the place where you have set up the device. Always keep the socket free of ob- structions so that the power supply can be discon- nected easily. In order to disconnect the power to your device or to completely isolate the device from voltage sources, remove the mains adapter from the socket. When disconnecting the connection cable from the mains supply, always pull on the mains adapter rath- er than on the cable. Remove the mains adapter from the socket if the de- vice or power supply produces unusual noises or smoke.

• Please note that the device continues to use power when in standby mode.

4.3.1. Mains adapter

Use only the mains adapter supplied. If the housing of the mains adapter or the connection cable is damaged, the mains adapter must be disposed of and re- placed with a new mains adapter of the same type. The mains adapter may only be used in dry rooms.157

4.4. Installation location/surroundings In the first few hours of use, new products may give off a typi- cal, unavoidable but totally harmless smell which will wear off with time. We recommend you ventilate the room regularly to help dissipate this odour. We have taken appropriate measures during the development of this product to ensure that levels are well below legal limits. DANGER! Risk of electric shock! Major changes in temperature or fluctuations in hu- midity can cause moisture to build up within the device due to condensation – this can cause an electrical short circuit. After transporting the device, wait until it has reached ambient temperature before switching it on. NOTICE! Risk of damage to the device! Unsuitable environmental conditions could cause dam- age to the device. Use the device only in dry rooms. To prevent the device from falling, only install and operate it and its components on a sturdy, level and vibration-free surface. When setting up the device, make sure that − there is a sufficient gap in relation to other objects, and that the ventilation slots are not covered in order to ensure that there is always sufficient ventilation; − the device and mains adapter are not exposed to direct sources of heat (e.g. radiators);158 − the device and the mains adapter are not left in direct sun- light; − contact with moisture, water, droplets or splashes is avoid- ed, and no liquid-filled objects – for example, vases – are placed on or near the device; − the device is not placed close to magnetic fields (e.g. televi- sion sets or other loudspeakers); − no naked flames, such as lit candles, are placed near the device; − the connection cable is not taut or bent.

The device can be fitted below a horizontal mounting plate, e.g. under a wall cupboard. WARNING! Risk of fire/short circuit! Rising steam or heat can pose a risk of electric shock or fire if a short circuit occurs. Never mount the device above a hob or any other heat or steam source (for example, electric kettles, etc.). Never allow the connection cable to hang over a cooker hob or other heat source.159

4.5. Repairs DANGER! Risk of electric shock! There is a risk of electric shock due to live parts. Check the device and the connection cable for dam- age before using the device for the first time, and af- ter each use. Do not use the device if the device or mains adapter show visible signs of damage. If you discover any damage or experience any techni- cal problems, have the device repaired exclusively by a qualified technician. If a repair must be carried out, please contact only our authorised service partners. 4.6. Cleaning the device DANGER! Risk of electric shock! Risk of injury from electric shock due to live parts. Before cleaning, pull the mains adapter out of the socket. NOTICE! Possible material damage! Improper handling of sensitive surfaces can damage the device. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the device.
