Electrical Safety


Warning! Switch off, remove plug
from mains before adjusting,
cleaning or if cable is cut, damaged
or entangled.
Your machine is double insulated for
safety and requires no earth
connection. The operating voltage is
230 V AC, 50 Hz (for non-EU countries
220 V). Only use approved extension
cables. Contact your Bosch Service
Centre for details.
It is recommended for increased
electrical safety to use a Residual
Current Device (RCD) with a tripping
current of not more than 30 mA.
Always check your RCD every time
you use it.
Keep power cable away from moving
hazardous parts and avoid damage to
the cable which can lead to contact
with live parts.
The connection lead must be inspected
for signs of damage at regular intervals
and may only be used if in perfect
condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by a Bosch Service Centre.
Extension cords/leads should only be
used if they comply with H05VV-F or
H05RN-F types.

For products not sold in GB:
WARNING: For your safety, it is
required that the plug attached to the
machine is connected with the
extension cord. The coupling of the
extension cord must be protected
against splash water, be made of
rubber or coated with rubber. The
extension cord must be used with a
cable strain relief.
 Products sold in GB only: Your prod-
uct is fitted with a BS 1363/A ap-
proved electric plug with internal fuse
(ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your
socket outlets, it should be cut off
and an appropriate plug fitted in its
place by an authorised customer ser-
vice agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as
the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of
to avoid a possible shock hazard and
should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
