equipment. Local regulations or
bylaws may determine the mini-
mum age for using the device.

against electric shock.
• Should there be people in the
water, do not operate the equip-
ment. Risk of electric shock!
• Take appropriate measures to
keep children away from the
equipment whilst it is running.
There is a risk of injury!
