Do not allow the cord to hang over sharp edges and keep it well away from hot objects and naked flames. Remove the plug from the socket only by holding the plug.

For extra protection it is possible to fit the electric household installation with a fault current breaker with a rated breaking current of not more than 30mA. Ask your electrician for advice.

Make sure that there is no danger that the cord or extension cord may inadvertently be pulled or cause anyone to trip when in use.

If an extension cord is used it must be suited to the power consumption of the appliance, otherwise overheating of the extension cord and/or plug may occur.

This appliance is not suitable for commercial use nor for use in the open air.
