- Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket in thunderstorms for reasons of safety.
■ Make sure that the mains cable is not squeezed, bent, damaged by sharp edges or put under mechanical stress.
- Avoid excessive thermal stress on the mains cable from extreme heat or cold.
Do not modify the mains cable. Otherwise the mains cable may be damaged. A damaged mains cable can cause a deadly electric shock.
- Do not touch the mains cable if it is damaged.
- First, power down the respective mains socket (e.g. via the respective circuit breaker) and then carefully pull the mains plug from the mains socket.
