i This appliance is equipped with rubber feet to prevent it from
moving. The feet are made from non-migrating material specially
formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on furniture.
However, certain types of furniture polishes, wood preservatives or
cleaning sprays cause the rubber to soften and leave marks or
a residue on the furniture, and potentially risk the surface to
become damaged. To prevent damage to wooden surfaces,
we recommend that you apply self-adhesive pads to the bottom of
the rubber feet before installation.
Battery backup3.1
In case of a power failure, the
appliance relies on battery backup.
For this purpose, the appliance uses
one battery (9V). The appliance

Incorrect installation can cause battery leakage and corrosion

leakage and any other gradually acidic defect of this nature will
invalidate the guarantee.
