6.1 Electrical connection

Make sure the voltage and the cross-section of the power cord match the specifications indicated on the
rating plate positioned in the storage compartment. Do not remove this plate for any reason.
If the appliance is connected to the supply by means of a fixed connection, install a multipolar cut-out
device on the line, with contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3 mm located near the
appliance and in an easily reachable position.
Connection to the supply may be fixed or with plug and socket. In the latter case the plug and socket
must be suitable for the cable employed and conform to the regulations in force. Regardless of the type
of connection, the appliance must be earthed. Before connection, make sure that the power supply line
is suitably earthed. Avoid the use of reducers, adapters or shunts which may cause overheating.
