or
CORDSET 39
, they must be replaced.
•
Continued usage is not allowed.

2. Leakage
current
Check that leakage current is within IEC requirement.
Measure leakage current between LIVE/NEUTRAL & EARTH.
IEC requirement is that at 230 V supply, the EARTH leakage current must be less than 0.75 mA.
3.
Water leakage / Functionality
Check that there is no water leakage from any part of product during operation.
Check that the functionality of the product (product dependent) eg. steaming, variable steam, SOS, ASO etc is working
properly.
4. Loose
part
Check that there are no loose parts eg. Extra screws in the product that can cause short-circuit or product malfunctions.
5. Self-Check
mode
5.1. Introduction of Self-Check mode
Self-Check mode is
NOT
an exhaustive diagnosis, but a quick preliminary check on all the hardware function.
Further test and troubleshooting may still be required by Service Center to identify the root cause.
5.2. Before start Self-Check mode, please do the following checking
