•After use, the surfaces of the heating element still have
residual heat.
•To move the machine, always hold it by the outer casing.

•Route the connecting cord in such a way that it cannot be
tripped over. Do not let the connecting cord hang down
from the surface the machine is put on, so that the
machine cannot be pulled down by it.
•Keep all cards with magnetic strips, such as credit cards,
debit cards, etc. away from the drip bowl and the cover for
the brewing unit and all the magnets built into these parts.
The cards could become damaged. Also keep magnetic
memory storage media and all devices that are affected by
magnetism or may sustain functional impairment away
from the machine.
•The machine is equipped with non-slip feet. Work surfaces
often have varnished or plastic finishes and are treated
with a variety of care products. Some of these may contain
substances that react adversely to the non-slip feet and
soften them. If necessary, place a non-slip mat under the
machine.
