9. Wrapping the cord around the appliance may
cause fire and/or electric shock.

power cord or plug, if it is not working properly,
or if it has been damaged or dropped into water.
Return the appliance to an authorized Panasonic

electrical components, the appliance must be
fixed so that the handle, when fully extended, is
out of reach of a person using a bath or shower.

unplug it after use since the proximity of water
presents a hazard even when the appliance is
switched off.

residual current device (RCD) having a rated
residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA
is advisable in the electrical circuit supplying the
bathroom. Ask your installer for advice.
