To connect the electrical supply:
1- This appliance must be installed individually on a separate and distinct final sub-circuit.
2- Ensure the supply cable and fuse rating are suitable for the appliance (see the electrical
loading).
3- Remove the cover plate by undoing the screw.
4- Fit a suitable entry bush to the conduit entry on the rear left of the appliance (with the rear
toward you) and feed the fixed wiring through.
5- Connect the wiring to the terminal block using the screw connections provided. Ensure
the wires are properly secured to prevent any high resistance electrical connection.
6- Replace the cover plate making certain that the supply wiring is clear of any metal work
and the screws.
7- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard
When connected to a sub circuit, protected by a circuit breaker, it is recommended the circuit
breaker be the same as the total rating of the appliance.
To fully disconnect the power supply, it is necessary to have a proper mean in the fixed
wiring in accordance with the wiring rules. It must have full disconnection under
overvoltage category III conditions.
If you wish a direct connection to the line, it is necessary to use a double pole switch, with a
minimum opening between the contacts of 3mm. suitable for the purpose and in compliance with
local regulations (the green ground cable should not be interrupted by the switch).
