Preparing the appliance
2.1 Unpacking
1. Unpack the appliance and all its accesso-
ries.
2. Check the contents for completeness and
possible damages.

ages. Keep the packaging for such an

material according to the applicable regula-
tions of your country.

Immediately contact your dealer if you have
found damage resulting from transportation.

2.4 Connecting
ATTENTION:
Only operate the appliance if your mains
voltage is the same as that indicated on the
appliance's nameplate. Wrong voltage can
destroy the appliance.
1. Unravel the power cord from the base only
as far as necessary.
WARNING:
Danger of injury!
Run the cord in such a way that it does not
constitute a hazard.
2. Fix the power cord by pressing it back into
the exit opening of the base.
3. Insert the mains plug into a socket with
ground/safety contact.
The display of the temperature set-
ting will now show "EE".
This indicates that the base is al-
ready connected to the mains, but
the appliance has not yet been put
onto the base.
4. Put the appliance onto the base so that
the plug engages the contacts.
The set temperature indicator will
now show a blinking "OF".
Your appliance is now ready to use.
ATTENTION:
Avoid heating the empty pot, as this might
damage the appliance in spite of its auto-
matic shut-off feature.
NOTE:
If the appliance is accidentally switched on
empty, the overheating-protection will auto-
matically switch it off (for this, also refer to
ZChapter 3.4, "Automatic switch-off"). Let
the appliance cool off completely before fill-
ing it with water or food again.
