Technical safety
~
Installation, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
~
Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. A damaged appliance could
be dangerous.
~
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system. It is
most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested
regularly and, where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Warning and Safety instructions
~
Before connecting the appliance,
make sure that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage and connected
load) match the mains electricity
supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the
appliance. Consult a competent person
if in doubt.
~
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a multi-
socket unit or an extension lead. These
do not guarantee the required safety of
the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
~
For safety reasons, this appliance
may only be used when it has been
built in.
~
Never open the housing of the
appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.
~
While the appliance is under
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the warranty will be
invalidated.
