2. Informazioni sulla sicurezza

Quando si utilizzano apparecchi elettrici, seguire sempre le precauzioni di sicurezza di base per ridurre il rischio di incendi, scosse elettriche o lesioni.

  • Assicurarsi che la cappa sia correttamente collegata a terra.
  • Non azionare alcun ventilatore con un cavo o una spina danneggiati. Smaltire il ventilatore o riportarlo a un centro di assistenza autorizzato per l'esame e/o la riparazione.
