The appliance is supplied with a mains
cable and moulded plug ready for
connection to an a.c. single phase
220 – 240 V 50 Hz supply. The fuse
rating is 13 amps.
All electrical work should be carried
out by a suitably qualified and
competent person in accordance
with local and national safety
regulations.
Connection should be made via a
fused plug and suitable switched
socket which is easily accessible.
For extra safety it is advisable to
install a residual current device
(RCD) with a trip current of 30 mA
(in accordance with DIN VDE 0664,
VDE 0100, Section 739).
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an extension
lead. Extension leads do not guarantee

(e.g. danger of overheating).
The appliance must not be connected
to an inverter and must not be used
with a plug adapter as these can cause
damage to the appliance's electronic
unit.
