Electrical connection
53
The appliance is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug for connection
to a 50 Hz 220–240 V supply.
The fuse rating must be at least 10 A
(13 A in the UK).
All electrical work should be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
local and national safety regulations (BS
7671 in the UK). Please ensure that the
connection data quoted on the data
plate match the household mains sup-
ply.
Connection should be made via a suit-
able switched socket which is easily ac-
cessible. It must not be located behind
the appliance.
If the mains socket is not accessible
after the appliance has been installed, a
separator for each terminal must be
present. There must be an all-pole con-
tact gap of at least 3 mm in the switch
(including switch, fuses and relays ac-
cording to EN 60335).
The plug and mains connection cable
must not come into contact with the
back of the appliance as vibrations can
cause damage to these components.
This, in turn, could result in a short cir-
cuit.
Do not plug in other appliances behind
this wine conditioning unit.
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an extension
lead. Extension leads do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance
(e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not connect the appliance to an in-
verter such as those used with an
autonomous energy source e.g.
solar
power
. When switched on, peak loads
in the system can cause the safety
switch-off mechanism to be triggered.
This can damage the electronic unit.
The appliance must not be used with
so-called
energy-saving devices
either. These reduce the amount of en-
ergy supplied to the appliance, causing
it to overheat.
If the mains cable needs to be replaced
this must be done by a suitably quali-
fied person.
