ronment such as bathrooms or shower rooms.
Do not use the devices in environments with a potential explosion hazard
(e.g. paint shops).
If you give your device to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.

cause injury to hands and face. Send the device to our Service department to be
repaired.
