b) Electrical safety
• Before connecting the product to the mains, check that your local A/C mains
voltage matches the specifications on the nameplate.
• This device was constructed according to protection class II. Only connect the
adapter plug to a standard mains socket (230 V/AC, 50 Hz) connected to the
public grid.
• Never pour liquids over electrical devices or place objects filled with liquid next
to the product. If liquid or an object does enter the interior of the device, power
down the respective socket (e.g. switch off the circuit breaker), and then remove
the mains plug from the mains socket. Discontinue use and take the product to a
specialist repair centre.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room

hours.
• Do not touch the mains adapter if there are any signs of damage, as this may
cause a fatal electric shock! Switch off the mains voltage to the socket containing
the power adapter (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the
safety fuse, and then switch off at the corresponding RCD protective switch).
You can then unplug the mains adapter from the mains socket. Dispose of the
faulty mains adapter in an environmentally friendly manner and discontinue use.
Replace it with a power adapter of the same design.

storms.
• Never leave the product unattended during use.
