IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ALL ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The appliance is heated electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable wall power socket
to connect the appliance directly to a protected mains power supply with protective conduc-
tor (earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power
supply corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (220 - 240 V, 50 Hz, AC,
rated for at least 8 A).
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.) with a maximum rated
residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly recommen-
ded. If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information. In various foreign countries,
the specifications for power supplies are subject to incompatible norms. Therefore it is possi-
ble that power supplies in foreign countries do not meet the requirements for safe operation
of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad, ensure that safe operation
is possible.
• Do not to use any extension cords or multisocket outlets.
• Always handle the power cord with care. Always completely unwind the power cord
before use. Do not place the appliance on a power cord. Power cords may never be knotted,
twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Do not let the plug or power cord hang over the edge
of the table or counter. The power cord may not touch hot surfaces. Ensure that no one will
pull the appliance by the power cord. Take care not to entangle in the power cord. Always
grasp the plug to disconnect the power cord. Do not touch the power plug with wet hands
when the appliance is connected to the power supply.
• Unwind the power cord fully before use.
• To protect against electric shock do not immerse power cord, power plug or appliance in
water or any other substance.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physi-
cal, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
• Never remove the filter holder during the brewing operation as the machine is under pressure.
• Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• The appliance has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or pro-
perty damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do not
allow children to be near or use this appliance without close adult supervision. If you must
use a longer cord or an extension cord when using the appliance, the cord must include a
3-prong grounding plug. It must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over the edge of a
countertop, tabletop or surface area where it can be pulled on by young children or tripped
over. To prevent electric shock, personal injury or fire, the electrical rating of the extension
cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the appliance (wattage is marked
on the underside of the appliance).
• This appliance is recommended for household use only. Do not use this appliance for
anything other than its intended use. Do not use in moving vehicles or boats. Do not use out-
doors. Misuse may cause injury.
CAUTION:
To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly
earthed outlets only.
