Safety
When connecting, make sure that it
has the correct voltage. You can fi nd
more detailed information about this
on the nameplate.
It is not permitted to connect the ap-
■
pliance to a timer or separate remote
control system for the purposes of re-
motely monitoring and controlling.
When positioning the appliance, en-
■
sure the supply cord is not trapped or
damaged.
Do not locate multiple portable
■
socket- outlets or portable power sup-
plies at the rear of the appliance.
Pulling the mains plug out of the
■
socket is the only way to complete-
ly disconnect the appliance from the
power supply. The appliance must
therefore be connected to an easi-
ly accessible socket so that it can be
quickly disconnected from the power
supply in the event of breakdown.
If the mains plug is no longer acces-
■
sible after installation, an all-pole dis-
connecting device complying with
overvoltage category III must be
connected to the house wiring with a
contact gap of at least 3 mm; this in-
cludes fuses, circuit breakers and con-
tactors.
Do not kink or pinch the mains cord
■
or lay it over sharp edges.
Keep the appliance, the mains plug
■
and the mains cord away from open
fl ames and hot surfaces.
Always touch the mains plug, not the
■
mains cord.
Never touch the mains plug with wet
■
hands.
Never immerse the mains cord or plug
■
in water or any other liquids.
If the mains cable of the appliance is
■
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, through its customer
service department or by a qualifi ed
specialist.
Inspections and repairs to the appli-
■
ance may only be carried out by au-
thorised specialists (see "Our Service

jury; any liability and warranty claims
will be forfeited. Never try to repair a
defective or suspected defective ap-
pliance yourself.
Only parts corresponding to the orig-
■
inal appliance specifi cations may be

In the event of a fault, as well as be-
■
fore extensive cleaning, pull out the
