connect the appliance directly to a separately protected mains power supply wall
socket with protective conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Before operati-
on completely unwind the power cord. Do not use any extension cord or multi socket
outlet. The installation of a residual current safety switch with a maximum rated resi-
dual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is recommended.
If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are subject to
incompa-tible 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.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or sepa-
rate remote-control system.
• Always handle the power cord with care. The power cord may never be knotted,
twisted or squeezed. Do not pull or strain the power cord. Do not let the plug or
power cord hang over the edge of the table or counter. Take care that no one
will pull the appliance by the power cord, especially when young children are
near. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the appliance from the power outlet.
Do not touch the plug or appliance with wet hands, when the plug is connected
to the power supply.
• Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces or sharp edges. Do not place the
appliance on the power cord. If the power cord warms up during operation or
is likely to be damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised service centre. Do
not attempt to repair the power cord!
• Do not immerse the appliance or power cord in water or any other liquid. Do not
spill or drip any liquids on the oven or power cord to avoid risk of fire and elec-
tric shock. When liquids are spilled on the exterior of the appliance, immediately
turn the appliance OFF (press PAUSE/STOP twice), unplug the power cord, dry
the appliance and then leave it dry naturally for at least 1 day.
• Do not clean with metal sourcing pads. Pieces can break off the pads and touch
electrical parts resulting in a risk of short circuit and/or electrical shock.
• Do not place the appliance in an automatic dishwasher.
