•  In case of damage to the appliance or its power cable, request a replacement appliance or cable from the manufac-turer, its customer service or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.

•  Do not use the appliance outdoors.

•  Do not use extension cables – this will make it easier to disconnect the appliance quickly in an emergency.
