NOTE!
Risk of damage!
Improper handling can damage the device.
- Operate the device on an easily accessible, level, dry, heat-
resistant and sufficiently stable work surface. Never place the
device on the edge of the work surface.
- Do not operate the device by means of an external timer or
separate remote-control system.
- To avoid a build-up of heat, do not position the device directly
against a wall or under wall-mounted cabinets or similar.
- Never place the device on or near hot surfaces (stove tops,
etc.) and never expose the device to high temperatures
(heaters, etc.) or to bad weather (rain, etc.).
- A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not
use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are
used or stored.
