This appliance must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and earthed.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the earthing instructions are not
completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is
properly earthed. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3 pin earthing plug, and a 3-slot socket which will
accept the plug.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If an extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
b. The extension cord must be earthed, a 3-wire cord.
c. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
worktop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
accidentally.
Check that the voltage marked on the product corresponds with your
supply voltage.
This product is fitted with a 13 A plug complying with BS1363. If this plug
