IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The appliance is driven electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable wall power
socket to connect the appliance to a protected mains power supply with protective
conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your
mains power supply corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (230
V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for at least 16 A). The power outlet socket must be installed
separately from other power outlet sockets to avoid interference with other appli-
ances.
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.d.) with a maxi-
mum rated residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is
strongly recommended. If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are subject to
incompatible norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in foreign countries
do not meet the requirements for safe operation of the appliance. Thus, before ope-
rating the appliance abroad, ensure that safe operation is possible.
Do not use any desk top multi socket outlet, external switching device, or remote
control systems, to avoid risk of fire or electric shock. You should avoid using an
extension cord.However, if you wish to use an extension cord, special care must be
exercised. The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least 16 A with a
protective conductor connected properly. Connecting to the power supply: connect
the appliance to the extension cord first, thereafter connect the extension cord to the
power supply. Disconnecting: unplug the extension cord first from the power supply.
DO NOT pour or spill any liquids on or under the appliance or power cord. Do not
immerse the appliance, power cord, or power plug in water or other liquids. Do
not place the appliance on wet surfaces. When liquids overflowed or are spilled on
the base or power cord or accumulate under the appliance, immediately unplug the
appliance. Thereafter, dry the appliance and let it dry naturally for at least 1 day.
Always completely unwind power cords before use. Power cords may never be knot-
ted, twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Do not let the plug or power cord hang
over the edge of the table or counter. The power cord may not touch hot surfaces or
