1.4 Safe installation

Take note of the safety instructions when installing the appliance.

WARNING ‒ Risk of electric shock!

Improper installation is dangerous.

Connect and operate the appliance only in accordance with the
specifications on the rating plate.

Connect the appliance to a power supply with alternating cur-
rent only via a properly installed socket with earthing.

The protective conductor system of the domestic electrical in-
stallation must be properly installed. The installation must have
a sufficiently large cross section.

When using a residual current circuit breaker, only use a type
with the 

 mark.

Never equip the appliance with an external switching device,
e.g. a timer or remote control.

When the appliance is installed, the mains plug of the power
cord must be freely accessible. If free access is not possible, an
all-pole isolating switch must be installed in the permanent elec-
trical installation according to the installation regulations.

When installing the appliance, check that the power cable is not
trapped or damaged.

If the insulation of the power cord is damaged, this is dangerous.

Never let the power cord come into contact with hot appliance
parts or heat sources.

Never let the power cord come into contact with sharp points or
edges.

Never kink, crush or modify the power cord.

WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!

It is dangerous to use an extended power cord and non-approved
adapters.

Do not use extension cables or multiple socket strips.

If the power cord is too short, contact Customer Service.

Only use adapters approved by the manufacturer.
