This appliance must not be installed outdoors - not even in an area protected by a roof. It is extremely dangerous to leave it exposed to rain or storms. 2.

Do not ever touch or handle the appliance with bare feet or with wet hands or feet. 4. It is highly recommended that you do not use extension cords or multiple socket adapters.
