Lorsque vous utilisez votre ouvre-boîte électrique Kenmore, des précautions de sécurité
de base doivent toujours être suivies, notamment les suivantes :
1. LIRE TOUTES LES CONSIGNES AVANT D’UTILISER L’APPAREIL
2. Avant d’utiliser l’appareil pour la première fois, retirez tout matériel d’emballage,
étiquettes promotionnelles et autocollantes. Jetez en toute sécurité les sacs en
plastique ou les petits morceaux qui pourraient présenter un risque de suocation ou
d’étouement pour les jeunes enfants.
3. Avant d’utiliser le mélangeur, vériez que la tension de la prise murale correspond à
celle indiquée sur la plaque signalétique. N’essayez pas d’utiliser l’appareil avec un
convertisseur de tension.
4. FICHE POLARISÉE : Cet appareil est équipé d’une che polarisée (une broche est plus
large que l’autre). Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique, cette che ne peut être
insérée dans une prise polarisée que dans un seul sens. Si la che n’entre pas dans la
prise, inversez la che dans l’autre sens. Si elle ne s’insère toujours pas, veuillez prendre
contact avec un électricien qualié. N’essayez PAS de modier la che de quelque
manière que ce soit pour l’adapter.
5. N’essayez pas de faire fonctionner l’appareil si le cordon ou la che est endommagé,
après qu’il a mal fonctionné ou qu’il a tombé ou a été endommagé de quelque manière
que ce soit, ou s’il ne fonctionne pas correctement. Contactez le service à la clientèle de
Koolatron pour plus d’informations sur les options de réparation et de garantie.
6. Débranchez toujours l’appareil de la source d’alimentation lorsqu’il n’est pas utilisé,
avant de l’assembler ou de le désassembler et avant de le nettoyer. Pour débrancher,
saisissez la che et retirez-la de la prise électrique; ne débranchez jamais l’appareil en
tirant sur le cordon d’alimentation.
7. Pour vous protéger contre les chocs électriques, ne plongez pas la base de l’appareil,
le cordon d’alimentation ou la che électrique dans du liquide. Si l’appareil tombe ou
est accidentellement immergé dans l’eau, débranchez-le immédiatement de la prise
murale. NE METTEZ PAS VOTRE MAIN DANS L’EAU POUR LE RÉCUPÉRER.
8. Ne laissez pas le cordon d’alimentation pendre du bord de la table ou du comptoir ni
le laissez entrer en contact avec des surfaces chaudes, telles que la cuisinière ou la
marmite.
9. Cet article est destiné à un usage domestique uniquement, et non à un usage
commercial, industriel ou en extérieur. Ne l’utilisez pas à l’extérieur. L’utilisation de cet
appareil à des ns autre que l’usage auquel il est destiné annulera votre garantie.
