1. GENERAL SAFETY RULES
●
The packing elements (plastic bags, expanded
polystyrene, nails, cardboard, etc.) must not be left
within the reach of children, as they are potential
sources or danger.
●
Check that the data on the machine corresponds
to those of the electrical supply network, before
connecting the equipment.
●
It is advisable to unwind the supply cable for the
whole length to avoid twisting or damages. Do not
place the cable near water, liquids or heat sources.
The cable must not be damaged.
●
Should the cable be damaged, contact qualified
personnel to replace it by means of a special
tool.
●
It is inadvisable to use adapters, multiple sockets
and/or extensions. When their use is indispensa-
ble, only products with certificate of quality (e.g.
IMQ, VDE, +S, etc.) may be used. Check that the
voltage capacity limit indicated on the adapters
exceeds the absorption capacity (A = ampere) of
the equipment.
●
In doubt, request an accurate check of the plant
by qualified personnel. The wiring system must
comply with the following safety regulations:
- efficient earth connection;
- section of conductors suitable for absorption
capacity
- efficient ear th leakage protection circuit
breaker.
●
Do not install the machine in the proximity heat
sources (oven, cooking stove, fireplace, etc.) and
in conditions in which the temperature may not go
below 5°C. IT MUST BE PROTECTED AGAINST
FREEZING CONDITIONS.
●
Keep the packed machine in a dry place, not
exposed to atmospheric agents and in conditions
in which the temperature may not go below 5°C.
Do not stack more than three items of the same
kind. Do not place heavy items on the packa-
ging.
●
In an emergency (fire, anomalous noisiness, ove-
rheating, etc.) disconnect the plug, turn off the gas
and water taps.
●
Do not leave the machine exposed to atmospheric
agents (rain, sun, etc.) and do not install in damp
rooms such as bathrooms.
●
In the event of parts replacement, request original
spares from an authorized retailer or dealer.
Erroneous installation may cause damage to
people and things for which the manufacturer
cannot be considered responsible.
