ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Regulations require that the appliance is earthed. The
manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals
and for damage to property resulting from failure to observe the
prescriptions.
Make sure that the installation and the electrical connection are
carried out by a qualified technician according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and local safety regulations.
If your new appliance is provided with a plug with no earth wire,
connect the green/yellow earth wire (A) to the earth screw
located on the appliance (B) (see figure).
Ensure that the voltage indicated on the appliance data plate
corresponds to the mains voltage.
The plug of the appliance must be easily accessible even after
installation so that the appliance can be unplugged if necessary.
If this is not possible, connect the appliance to the mains supply
by means of a two-pole switch with minimum break distance
between contacts of 3 mm, fitted at an easily accessible point.
If the power supply cable plug and socket are not of the same
type, replace the socket.
Do not use extension leads or adapters.
After installation, make sure that the appliance is not standing on
the power supply cable.
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply by unplugging
it. Do not pull the power supply cable.
