Guide to the appliance
8

To avoid the risk of accidents to the
appliance please read these
instructions carefully before using it
for the first time. They contain
important information on its
installation, safety, use and
maintenance.
The use of the appliance by the
elderly or infirm or those who have
not used the appliance before
should be supervised by a
competent and responsible person
to avoid the risk of injury.
Please stick the extra data plate for
the appliance supplied with this
documentation in the space
provided in the "After sales service"
section of this booklet.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any
future user.
Technical safety
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
the voltage and frequency correspond
to the rating on the data plate.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the
appliance. Consult a qualified
electrician if in any doubt.
This appliance may be connected
via a plug and fused socket. If you
wish to connect it to an isolator switch,
or if the appliance is supplied without a
plug, it must be installed and
connected by a suitably qualified and
competent person in strict accordance
with local and national safety
regulations. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for damage caused by
incorrect installation or connection.
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national safety regulations. It is most
important that this basic safety
requirement is tested regularly, and if
there is any doubt, the electrical wiring
in the home should be inspected by a
qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the
consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electrical supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Never open the casing of the
appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components is highly dangerous to
the user and can cause operational
faults.
