Naudodami elektros prietaisus, visada laikykitės pagrindinių saugos priemonių, kad sumažintumėte gaisro, elektros smūgio ir (arba) asmenų sužalojimo riziką, įskaitant:
- Prieš naudodami prietaisą perskaitykite visas instrukcijas.
- Nelieskite karštų paviršių. Naudokite rankenas arba rankenėles.
- Kad apsisaugotumėte nuo gaisro, elektros smūgio ir žmonių sužalojimų, nemerkite laido, kištukų ar prietaiso į vandenį ar kitą skystį.
- Atidžiai prižiūrėti būtina, kai bet kurį prietaisą naudoja vaikai arba jį naudoja šalia vaikų.
- Ištraukite kištuką iš elektros lizdo, kai nenaudojate ir prieš valydami. Prieš uždėdami ar nuimdami dalis ir prieš valydami prietaisą, leiskite atvėsti.
- Nenaudokite prietaiso su pažeistu laidu ar kištuku arba prietaisui sugedus arba jokiu būdu sugadinus.
- Prietaiso gamintojo nerekomenduojamų priedų naudojimas gali sukelti gaisrą, elektros smūgį arba susižaloti žmones.
- Nenaudoti lauke.

- Nedėkite ant įkaitusios dujinės ar elektrinės viryklės ar šalia jos, taip pat į įkaitintą orkaitę.
- Visada pirmiausia prijunkite kištuką prie prietaiso, o tik tada įkiškite laidą į sieninį lizdą. Norėdami atjungti, pasukite bet kurį valdiklį į „išjungta“, tada ištraukite kištuką iš sieninio lizdo.
