Warning and safety instructions
Technical safety
~
Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. A damaged appliance may
be dangerous.
~
This appliance is supplied with a
cable and moulded plug ready for
connection to a switched socket. If you
wish to connect it to a double-pole
fused spur connection unit or to an
isolator switch, or if the appliance is
supplied without a plug, it must be
installed and connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by incprrect
installation or connection.
Before connecting the appliance to the
mains electricity supply make sure that
the connection data on the data plate
(voltage and connected load)
correspond with the mains electricity
supply, otherwise the appliance could
be damaged. If in any doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with current local and national
safety regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
present and regularly tested, 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).
