1 Important safety instructions
This section contains safety instructions
that will help protect from risk of personal
injury or property damage. Failure to
follow these instructions shall void any

General safety
• Never place the product on a carpet-
covered floor; otherwise, lack of
airflow beneath the machine will
cause electrical parts to overheat.
This will cause problems with your
product.
• Do not operate the product if the
power cable / plug is damaged. Call
the Authorized Service Agent.
• Do not make any changes on the
plug supplied with the product. If it is
not compatible with the socket, have
a qualified electrician change the
socket with a suitable one.
• Never touch the plug with wet hands!
Never unplug by pulling on the cable,
always pull out by grabbing the plug.
• Connect the product to a grounded
outlet protected by a fuse of suitable
capacity as stated in the technical
specifications table.
• Power cable of this product is
equipped with a conductor and
a grounding plug that allows for
grounding the product. This plug
must be inserted into a socket
which is installed and grounded in
accordance with the local laws and

decreases the risk of electric shock
by opening a path with low resistance
for the electricity flow in case of a
malfunction or failure. Do not neglect
to have the grounding installation
made by a qualified electrician.

the grounding installation, have it
checked by a qualified electrician or
