read these operating instructions thoroughly.
• Keep the operating instructions in a suitable
place near the machine. When passing the
appliance on to others, always enclose the

leaving the machine unattended. This will

electric shocks.

pulling on the cable. Always grip the plug and
not the cable when pulling out the power
plug.
