Danger!
When using the equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating instructions and
safety information with due care. Keep these
operating instructions in a safe place so that the
information is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, hand over these
operating instructions and the safety information as
well. We cannot accept any liability for damage or
accidents which arise due to a failure to follow these
instructions and the safety information.

nWhen installing the equipment in a bathroom, be
sure to observe the safety clearances stipulated
in your country. It must be impossible for the
control elements to be touched by a person in a
shower, a vessel filled with liquid or the bathtub. In
Germany the equipment is not allowed to be
installed inside protection zone 0, 1 or 2 in order

refer to the regulations in your country.
nConnect the equipment to an earthed socket

or livestock breeding.
nIf the equipment is used for a lengthy time, the
housing can become very hot. Position the
equipment in such a way as to prevent accidental

stationary position.
nFor electrical safety purposes we recommend
that you install a residual current device circuit-
breaker (earth-leakage circuit-breaker).

unless they are continuously supervised
nChildren of 3 years and younger than 8 years are
allowed to use the equipment only if they are
supervised or have received instruction in how to
use the equipment safely and understand the
