First use − Never touch the mains plug and socket with wet hands. − Never pull the mains plug out of the socket by the mains cord; instead, always do so by grasping the mains plug. − If the power supply cable needs to be replaced, this must be done by the manufacturer or its representative in order to prevent risks to safety.
