PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Controls after transport

After removing the packaging, make sure the pro-
duct is complete and undamaged and that all
accessories are present.
Do not use the appliance if it is visibly damaged.
Contact the Technical Assistance service.

Installing the appliance

Important!
When you install the appliance, you should
respect the following safety warnings:
• The appliance gives off heat. Leave a free
space of at least 3 cm around the sides and
back of the appliance and at least 15 cm at the
top, otherwise the heat could be trapped and
damage the machine.
• Water penetrating the appliance could cause
damage. Do not place the appliance near taps
or sinks.
• The appliance could be damaged if the water
it contains freezes. Do not install the applian-
ce in a room where the temperature could
drop below freezing point.
• Arrange the power cable in such a way that it
cannot be damaged by sharp edges or contact
with hot surfaces (e.g. electric hot plates).

Connecting the appliance

Important! Check that the mains power
supply voltage corresponds to the value indicated
on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.
Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed and
correctly installed socket with a minimum current
rating of 10A only. If the power socket does not
match the plug on the appliance, have the socket
replaced with a suitable type by a qualified pro-
fessional.
