MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Warning. Before starting any maintenance work, you must remove the plug from the socket.
Cleaning
• As far as possible protections, ventilation slots and motor housing should be free from dust and dirt. Wipe
the device with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
•We recommend cleaning the device immediately after each use.
• The device should be cleaned regularly with a damp cloth and a small amount of gray soap. Do not use
