your nearest Ariston Service Centre. Never leave the packing components
(plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within the reach of children
since they are a source of potential danger.

7 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if it is correctly
and efficiently earthed, in compliance with regulations on electrical safety.
Always ensure that the earthing is efficient. If you have any doubts, contact
a qualified technician to check the system. The manufacturer declines all
liability for damage resulting from a system which has not been earthed.
8 Before plugging the appliance into the mains, check that the specifications
indicated on the date plate (on the appliance and/or packaging) correspond
with those of the electrical and gas systems in your home.

replaced with a suitable model by a qualified technician, who should also
check that the cross-section of the socket cable is sufficient for the power
absorbed by the appliance. The use of adaptors, multiple sockets and/or
extensions, is not recommended. If their use cannot be avoided, remember
to use only single or multiple adapters and extensions which comply with
current safety regulations. In these cases, never exceed the maximum
current capacity indicated on the individual adaptor or extension and the
