before unplugging it from the power socket. Unplug it from the 
power socket when not in use. Always grasp the plug while 
unplugging. Failure to do so may lead to fire and/or an 
accident.

cause fire and/or electric shock. If the cord is damaged or 
becomes hot, stop using it immediately.

exceeding 30 mA is advisable in the electrical circuit supplying 
the bathroom. Ask your installer for advice.
