If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses the risk of overheating and fire.
If the use of an extension cord is unavoidable, then make sure it is an undamaged,
approved extension cord with a minimum diameter of 3 x 2.5 mm² and a minimum
permissible power of 2000 Watt/10Amp. To prevent overheating, always fully extend
the cord!
