page EN-4.
• Pay particular attention to the following
safety instructions during start-up:
WARNING
Risk of suffocation!
Children can become entangled in the
packaging film or swallow small parts
and suffocate.
■ Do not allow children to play with the
packaging film.
■ Prevent children from pulling small
parts from the device or taking them
out of the accessory bag and putting
them in their mouths.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■ Do not operate or continue to oper-
ate the appliance if it
– shows visible signs of damage, for
example, the mains cable is defec-
tive,

burning,
– makes unfamiliar noises.
In such cases, remove the mains plug
from the socket or unscrew/isolate
the fuse and contact our service de-
partment (see page EN-30).
■ When positioning the appliance, en-
sure the supply cord is not trapped

■ If the mains plug is no longer acces-
sible after installation, an all-pole dis-
connecting device complying with
overvoltage category III must be
connected to the house wiring with a
contact gap of at least 3 mm; this in-
cludes fuses, circuit breakers and con-
tactors.
