the power supply
corresponds to the
voltage on the rating
plate.
♦ If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorised
BLACK+DECKER Service
Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
♦ Electric safety can be
further improved by using
a highsensitivity 30 mA Residual
Current Device (RCD).
