repairs. This also applies to repairs

during the warranty period, it may only
be repaired by our Service Centre.
Otherwise all claims under warranty are
null and void. You will find the service
address in “Service Centre” on
page 19.
4.4 Protection against electric shock
Warning! The following safety
information is intended to protect
you against electric shock.
• Only connect the appliance to a mains
socket with an earthing contact as this
provides protection against electric
shock.
• The appliance must not under any
circumstances be used if it is damaged.
Have the device repaired in such cases
by a qualified specialist. The contact
data can be found in “Service Centre”
on page 19.
• If the mains cable for this appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or a person with similar
qualifications in order to avoid a
hazard.
• Never touch the appliance, the mains
cable or the mains plug with wet hands.
• Always unplug it by pulling out the plug,
never pull on the cable itself.
• Ensure that the mains cable is not kinked,
twisted or crushed.
• Keep the mains cable away from hot
surfaces, such as the top of a stove.
• If you are not going to use the appliance
for a while, remove the plug from the
wall socket. Only then is the appliance
completely free of current.
• Avoid using extension cables. These
may only be used under very specific
conditions:
– the extension cable must be able to
handle the amount of current drawn
by the appliance,
– the extension cable must not be
"suspended". Keep children away
from it and ensure that it does not
present a trip hazard,
– under no circumstances use a
damaged extension cable,
– do not connect any other appliances
to the mains socket, since it could
cause an overload (do not use
multiple sockets of any kind).
4.5 Preventing the risk of fire
Warning! As the appliance
operates at high temperatures,
follow the safety instructions below
to prevent a fire starting.
• Never leave the appliance running
unsupervised. Damage is almost always
indicated by intensive odours. In this
case, disconnect the power supply
immediately and have the appliance
examined. Contact details can be found
in “Service Centre” on page 19.
4.6 Preventing injury
Warning! To prevent injury,
please observe the following
information.
• Make sure that the power cord never
becomes a trip hazard, that no-one can
get tangled in it or tread on it.
• Never put in too much water, otherwise
hot water might splash out. You can read
off the water level on the water level
indicator 13. It should always be
between MAX (1.2 l) and MIN (0.2 l).
