Electrical connection
Make sure that you have an earthed
power outlet socket rated at 13 amps
(minimum).
Attention!
If you use your machine as built-in,
the socket must be reachable after
installation, or a separate switch (which
can disconnect the two poles) must be
used in the installation.
Connect the power cord to the
appropriate electrical socket with an
equivalent current rating indicated on the
rating plate at the front of the machine
behind the kick plate.
After removing the plug from its transit
position, please insert the plug seal
to prevent water spillage entering the
machine.

Before you insert the plug into the wall
socket make sure that the voltage and
the frequency shown in the rating label

elsewhere in the house.
