and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mis-
takes and accidents, it is important to
ensure that all people using the appli-
ance are thoroughly familiar with its op-
eration and safety features. Save these

main with the appliance if it is moved or
sold, so that everyone using it through
its life will be properly informed on ap-
pliance use and safety.

the precautions of these user's instruc-
tions as the manufacturer is not respon-
sible for damages caused by omission.

by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental ca-
pabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been giv-
en supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
