●Socket must be earthed (protective ground contact).Before starting the device for the first time, ensure that the connector cable is suitable for the type of socket used and that a safe protective earth connection is assured.●Caution -Magnetism! Effects of the magnetic field have to be taken into account (e.g. data storage media, cardiac pacemakers .).●Risk of burns! Exercise caution when touching the housing parts and the heating plate. The heating plate can reach tem-peratures in excess of 310 °C. Pay attention to the residual heat after switching off.●Ensure that the mains power supply cable does not touch the heating base plate.●Wear your personal protective equipment in accordance withthe hazard category of the media to be processed. Otherwise there is a risk from:-splashing and evaporation of liquids-ejection of parts-release of toxic or combustible gases.●Set up the appliance in a spacious area on an even, stable, clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.●The feet of the appliance must be clean and undamaged.●Check the appliance and accessories beforehand for damage each time you use them. Do not use damaged components.●Gradually increase the speed.●Reduce the speed if-the medium splashes out of the vessel because the speed is too high-the appliance is not running smoothly-the container moves on the base plate.●Caution! Only process and heat up any media that has a flash point higher than the adjusted safe temperature limit that has been set (50 to 360 °C).The safe temperature limit must always be set to at least 25 °C lower than the fire point of the media used.
