************
1 - Avoid carrying out any operation that requires the unit
to be opened.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live components.
Burn injuries from hot components or injuries caused by parts
that stick out or by sharp edges.
2 - Avoid carrying out any operation that requires the unit
to be set down.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live components.
Flooding can be caused by water from tubing which has come
loose.
3 - Avoid using the supply cable plug to connect or discon-
nect the unit.
Fulguration can be caused by a damaged cable, socket or plug.
4 - Avoid damaging the electrical supply cable.
Fulguration can be caused by exposed live wires.
5 - Avoid placing items on the unit.
Injuries can be caused by the item falling because of vibrations.
Damage may be caused to the unit or items below it by items
that fall because of the vibrations.
6 - Do not climb on the unit.
Injury can be caused by the unit falling over.
Damage may be caused to the unit or items below it by the unit
coming loose from its support.
7 - Avoid climbing on chairs, stepladders, ladders or unstable
items to clean the unit.
Injury can be caused by falling from a height or by cuts (folding
ladder).
8 - Do not attempt to clean the unit without having rst shut
it down, unplugged it or turned o the switch.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live components.
9 - Install the unit on a solid wall that will not be damaged
by vibrations.
Noisy operation.
10 - Avoid damaging existing cables or tubing when drilling
into the wall.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live conductors. Ex
-
plosions, res or intoxication can occur because of gas escaping
from damaged tubing.
Existing systems may be damaged. Flooding can be caused by
water coming from damaged tubing.
11 - Protect tubing and linking cables to prevent them being
damaged.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live components.
Flooding can be caused by water from tubing which has come
loose.
12 - Make sure that the other systems linked to the unit meet
the current applicable standards.
Fulguration can occur through contact with live conductors that
have been incorrectly installed.
The unit may be damaged because of poor operating condi
-
tions.
13 - Use devices and manual tools that are intended for it
(be sure that the tool is not worn out and that the handle is
well attached), use them properly and take the precautions
necessary to prevent them falling, and be sure to put them
away after use.
Personal injury can be caused by projected shards or fragments,
inhaling dust, being hit, or cuts, pricks or abrasions.
The unit may be damaged by nearby objects, projected shards,
blows or cuts.
14 – Use the correct electrical tools (in particular, make sure
that the cable and the supply socket are in good condition
and that rotating or alternating parts are correctly atta-
ched), use them in the correct way, avoid obstruction by lea-
ving the supply cable visible, attach them securely so that
they do not fall from a height, remove them and put them
away after use.
Personal injury can be caused by projected shards or fragments,
inhaling dust, being hit, or cuts, pricks or abrasions.
The unit may be damaged by nearby objects, shards being pro
-
jected, blows or cuts.
15 - Make sure that portable ladders are stable, strong enou-
gh, that their steps are in good condition and not slippery,
and there is someone monitoring them to make sure that
they are not moved when there is somebody on them.
Injury can be caused by falling from a height or by cuts (folding
ladder).
16 - Make sure that extending ladders are stable, strong
enough, that their steps are in good condition and not slip-
pery, that they have support bars the length of the ramp and
on the platform.
Injury can be caused by falling from a height.
17 - Be sure that when work is carried out at a height (over
2 metres) that support bars have been placed around the
working area, or that individual safety harnesses are used to
prevent the risk of falling; in case a fall does happen, make
sure that there are no dangerous obstacles in the way and
that the landing is softened by a soft or pliable surface.
Injury can be caused by falling from a height.
18 - Make sure that the conditions of the working area are
safe and healthy in terms of lighting, air ow, structural
soundness and emergency exits.
Personal injury can be caused by blows, tripping and wounds.
19 - While work is being carried out, safety garments and
equipment should be used.
Personal injury can be caused by electrocution, projected shards
or fragments, inhaling dust, being hit, or cuts, pricks, abrasions,
noise or vibrations.
20 - Internal operations must be performed with the grea-
test care, avoiding any rough contact with sharp points.
Personal injury can be caused by cuts, pricks and abrasions.
21 - Do not use insecticides, solvents or harsh cleaning pro-
ducts for unit maintenance.
Painted or plastic parts can be damaged.
22 - Do not use the unit for anything other than normal do-
mestic use.
The unit may be damaged by operation overload.
There may be damage to objects handled in an improper way.
23 - Do not allow children or inexperienced persons to use
the unit.
Damage to the unit may be caused by improper use.
24 - Use the correct size conductors for electrical connec-
tions.
Fire can be caused by overheating due to the electrical current
passing through cables that are too small.
25 - Protect the unit and the areas adjacent to the work area
using suitable materials.
The unit or nearby objects may be damaged by shards being
projected or sharp implements.
26 - Move the unit using adequate protective measures and
the greatest care.
Damage can be caused to the device or nearby objects from
blows, cuts or crushing.
27 - Make sure that materials and equipment are kept to
make unit maintenance easier and safer, avoid piling ob-
jects that can fall over.
Damage can be caused to the device or nearby objects from
blows, cuts or crushing.
28 - Restore the safety and control procedures that indicate
the need for operations on the unit, and make sure that they
