IV. PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
Remove the outer packaging (wooden caging a nd/or carton box) and dispose it in compliance with the laws
in force in the country of installation.
REMOVING PROTECTIVE FILM ETC.
Remove th e protection film from the external and

and take off all plastic packaging.
STANDS ADJUSTMENT
Do not use the appliance without stands.
Take the st ands from inside, raise the device on one
side and screw them in the positions shown. They
have threaded inserts ( see image).
If they are not used, this prevents airflow from cooling
the electr ic parts and outsides of t he device which
causes over-heating and damage to components.
By placing the applian ce flat it will ensure correct
functioning. This can be achieved by fitting the stands
correctly and using a spirit level.
V. ELECTRI CAL CONNECTION
WARNING: Mains connection must be carried out by a qualified and authorised technician accordin g
to national, international and local laws in the country where it is installed.
Before mains connection, ensure that the frequency (…..V) and voltage (….Hz) meet the requirements
indicated in the in the information tag on the back of the appliance.
WARNING: if the device does not come with a trolley to facilitate tra nsport, it is advisable to connect it first
then place it in position in the work area ensuring the cable is not damaged during placement. This enable s
easy and safe connection. Ensure that the cable is uniformly exposed to a room temperature no higher than
50°.
PROOFERS WITH CABLE AND SINGLE PHASE PLUGS
For appliance with cable and plug (single phase 220-240V) the plug merely needs to go into the appropriate
socket (the socket must be adapted for the sup plied plug a nd must withstand the voltage required by th e

English | 4
appliance indicated on t he information plate). The product must be positioned so that the plug is always
accessible.
The appliance comes with certified cable and plug therefore they must not be tampered with or modified.
