Protection from electric shock
• Do not touch damaged power cords or damaged mains
plugs. Replace the power cord immediately.
• The mains voltage of the machine must match the mains
voltage of the mains electricity. Compare the mains voltage
on the type plate of the machine with the mains voltage of
the mains electricity before inserting the mains plug of the
machine into the socket.
• There are live components inside the machine. Do not open
the housing.
• Do not immerse the machine in water or other liquids.
• The machine may only be operated when the electrical fuse
cover is attached.
Children at home and persons with disabilities
• Children under eight years of age are not allowed to use the
machine.
• The machine can be used by children 8 years old and above,
and also by persons with reduced physical, sensory or men-
tal capacities or insufficient experience and knowledge, if
they are supervised or instructed in the safe use of the ma-
chine and understand the resulting risks.
• Children are not allowed to play with the machine.
• Cleaning and user servicing must not be performed by chil-
dren without supervision.
• The sealing bar reaches a temperature of approx. 140°C
(284°F) during operation. The seal seam of the sealed film
pouch is also hot just after sealing. Children must not touch
the machine while the sealing bar and the seal seam are hot.
• Risk of suffocation! The thin film of the packaging material
can adhere to the mouth and nose and interfere with breath-
ing. Keep the packaging material away from babies and
small children. Do not use the packaging material in cribs,

machine can contaminate the product and the pack. Regu-
larly clean the machine, the work equipment, the work envir-
onment and your hands before and after every use. In this
way undesired transmission of contaminants to objects and
the product can be avoided.
