Electrical connection
In order to ensure the safe and trouble-free operation of the device, the following
instructions must be observed for the electrical connection:
• Before connecting the device, compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on
the rating plate with those of your electrical network. This data must agree in order that
no damages occur in the device. If in doubt, ask your qualified electrician.
Do not use an extension lead. If you accept liability for doing so, only use an extension
lead which is in good condition and is suited to the power of the appliance.
• The use of multiple plugs or gangs is prohibited because of the danger of fire that is
involved with this.

maker or over hot or sharp surfaces.
• The electrical outlet must be protected by a 16A safety cut-out switch.
• The electrical safety of the device is only guaranteed if the device is connected to a
properly installed protective conductor system. If in doubt, have the house installation
checked over by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be made responsible for damages that are caused by a
missing or damaged protective conductor.
