Electrical connection
Connect this appliance to a 110 – 120
VAC, 60 Hz and 15 amp (20 amp for
side-by-side) circuit with a circuit
breaker or fuse.
This appliance is equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug to prevent shock
hazards. It should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded outlet. Do not
cut or remove the grounding prong from
the plug. If the plug does not fit the out-
let, have the proper outlet installed by a
licensed electrician. Do not use exten-
sion cords or ungrounded (two prong)
adapters.
The outlet must be easily accessible so
that the appliance can be quickly dis-
connected from the electrical supply in
case of an emergency.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor may result in elec-
tric shock. If you are in any doubt as to
whether the appliance has been prop-
erly grounded, have the appliance
checked by a qualified electrician or
service technician.
Installation, repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be danger-
ous. The manufacturer will not be held
responsible for damage or injury arising
from unauthorized work.
Before installing the appliance, verify
that the voltage, load and circuit rating
information found on the data plate
match the household electrical supply.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this
appliance, continuity must exist be-
tween the appliance and an effective
grounding system. It is imperative that
this basic safety requirement be met. If
there is any doubt, have the electrical
system of the house checked by a qual-
ified electrician.
The plug and power cord must not
come into contact with the back of the
appliance as vibrations can cause dam-
age to these components. This, in turn,
could result in a short circuit.
Do not plug in other appliances behind
this wine conditioning unit.
Do not use an extension cord to con-
nect the appliance to the power supply.
Extension cords do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (danger
of overheating, for example).
Do not connect the appliance to an in-
verter such as those used with an au-
tonomous 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 ei-
ther. These reduce the amount of en-
ergy supplied to the appliance, causing
it to overheat.
If the power cord needs to be replaced,
this must be done by a qualified techni-
cian.
