Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Electric shock may result.

When unplugging the machine, always turn off the main power first. Always grasp the plug to remove it from the outlet. Pulling on the cord may damage the cord, or lead to fire or electric shock.

Do not allow the power cord to be cut, damaged, modified, forcefully bent, pulled, twisted, or bundled. Do not place heavy objects on the cord. Do not subject the cord to heat. These things may damage the cord and cause fire or electric shock. If the cord or plug is damaged, take the machine to your authorized dealer for repairs before continuing use.

Unplug the power cord if the machine is not to be used for a long period of time, otherwise a fire may result.

No utilice cables alargadores ni adaptadores de varias clavijas con otros aparatos conectados. Podría producirse un incendio o una descarga eléctrica.

No toque el enchufe con las manos húmedas. Podría recibir una descarga eléctrica.

Desconecte siempre la máquina antes de desenchufar el cable de corriente. Sujete siempre el enchufe para sacarlo de la toma de corriente. Si tira del cable podría dañarlo o provocar un incendio o una descarga eléctrica.

No corte, estropee, cambie, doble, estire, tuerza o enrolle el cable. No coloque objetos pesados sobre el cable. No exponga el cable al calor. Todo esto podría dañar el cable y provocar un incendio o una descarga eléctrica. Si el cable está dañado, lleve la máquina a su distribuidor autorizado para que la repare antes de volver a utilizarla.
