If nonetheless liquid does enter the
appliance, unplug the mains plug
immediately and have the appliance
repaired by a qualified specialist. The
contact data can be found in “Service
Centre” on page 55.

• Never insert fingers or any objects

through the protective guards into the
inside of the appliance.

• Never touch the appliance, the mains

cord or the mains plug with moist hands.

• Always pull the mains cord out by the

plug. Never pull it by the cord itself.

• Ensure that the mains cable is not kinked,

twisted or crushed.

• Ensure that the mains cable is not

damaged on sharp edges.

• Keep the mains cord away from hot

surfaces (such as stove eyes).

• If you are not using the appliance for a

prolonged period of time, remove the
plug from the wall socket. Only then is
the appliance completely free of current.

• You should avoid using extension cords.

This is only allowed under very
particular conditions:
– The extension cord has to be suited for

the appliance's amperage.

– The extension cord must not be

installed "loose": it must not be
possible to trip over it or within the
reach of children.

– The extension cord must not by any

means be damaged.

– No other devices other than this

appliance must be connected to the
mains socket, as otherwise
overloading of the power supply
network could occur (multiple sockets
are not allowed!).

4.5 Protection against the danger of fire

Warning! As the appliance
works at high temperatures, please
observe the following safety
information to prevent fire.

• While the appliance is operating, there

must be no flammable objects (e.g.
curtains, paper) in the immediate vicinity
of the appliance.

• When setting up the appliance, maintain

a minimum distance of 0.5 m from other
appliances and the wall.

• Never use the appliance to dry textiles

or other items on, over or in front of the
appliance.

• To avoid overheating, the appliance

must never be covered.

• Never operate the appliance in rooms

where there is a risk of explosion or in
the vicinity of flammable gases or
liquids.

• The appliance must never be placed

immediately beneath a wall socket, as
the heat it generates could damage the
electrical installation.

• Always check that air can freely enter

and escape. Heat might otherwise build
up inside the appliance.

• Clean the dust filter 10 regularly (see

“6.2 Cleaning the dust filter” on
page 51). A clogged dust filter could
cause a build up of heat.

• Never leave the appliance running

when it is unattended. The presence of
odour is almost always an indication of
damage. If you notice any such odour,
unplug the mains plug immediately and
have the appliance inspected. The
contact data can be found in “Service
Centre” on page 55.
