SAFETY NOTES & GENERAL SERVICING ADVICE

1. This manual is NOT intended as a comprehensive repair/maintenance guide to the appliance.
2. It should ONLY be used by suitably qualified persons having technical competence applicable 

product knowledge and suitable tools and test equipment.

3. Servicing of electrical appliances must be undertaken with the appliance disconnected (unplugged) 

from the electrical supply.

4. Servicing must be preceded by Earth Continuity, Earth Resistance and Insulation Resistance checks.
5. Personal safety precautions must be taken to protect against accidents caused by sharp edges on 

metal and plastic parts.

6. After Servicing the appliance must be rechecked for Electrical Safety. In the case of appliances which 

are connected to a water supply (i.e.: Washing Machines, Dishwashers & Food Centres etc.) checks 
must be made for leaks from seals gaskets and pipe work and rectification carried out where 
necessary.

7. It can be dangerous to attempt ‘DIY’ repairs / maintenance on complex equipment and the Company 

recommends that any problem with the appliance is referred to its own Service Organisation.

8. Whilst the Company has endeavoured to ensure the accuracy of the data within this publication they 

cannot hold themselves responsible for any inconvenience or loss occasioned by any error within.
