Electrical safety
#
This machine is double insu-
lated; therefore no earth wire is
required. Always check that 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).
