ne placez pas l’appareil dans un endroit avant
de vous assurer qu’il y ait une bonne circulation
d’air.
N’enfoncez jamais d’objets à travers les
ouvertures de cet appareil, car ils pourraient
entrer en contact avec des points de tension
dangereux ou causer des courts-circuits qui
peuvent dégénérer en incendies ou en risques
d’électrocution. Ne renversez jamais de liquide
dans ce produit.
Afin de réduire les risques d’électrocution, ne
démontez pas cet appareil, mais apportez-le
dans un centre de service autorisé. L’ouverture
du boîtier ou le retrait de toutes pièces que
contient cet appareil, à l’exception de l’accès
autorisé à certaines portes ou ouvertures,
risque de vous exposer à des points de tension
dangereux ou d’autres dangers. Un remontage
incorrect peut par la suite présenter des risques
