Important safeguards for electrical appliances
The appliance is heated electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable wall power socket to
connect the appliance directly to a protected mains power supply with protective conductor
(earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply
corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (230 V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for at least
16 A). The power outlet socket must be installed separately from other power outlet sockets to
avoid interference with other appliances.
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.) with a maximum rated
residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly recommen-
ded. If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are subject to incompatible
norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in foreign countries do not meet the requi-
rements for safe operation of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad,
ensure that safe operation is possible.
• Do not use any desk top multi socket outlet, external timer, or remote control systems. It is
best to avoid using an extension cord, but if you wish to use one, only use an extension cord
rated for a maximum continuous current of at least 16 A with safety plug and safety coupler
plug and protective conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Additionally, the extension
cord must be of sufficient length. When laying power cords, always ensure that no one will
step on the power cord or get entangled or trip over the power cords. Also, ensure that no
tension is applied to any part of the power cords. Tie the extension cord loosely onto the leg
of the table using a separate cord, to ensure that no one will pull the power cord. To connect:
always connect the appliance to the extension cord first. To disconnect: Always unplug the
extension cord from the power supply first.
• Always handle power cords with care. The pins of the power plug must be smooth and
clean. Always completely unwind the power cord before use. Do not place the appliance on
a power cord. Power cords may never be knotted, twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Do
not let the plug or power cord hang over the edge of the table or counter. The power cord may
not touch hot surfaces or sharp edges. Ensure that no one will pull the appliance by the power
cord. Take care not to entangle in the power cord. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the
power cord. Do not touch the appliance or power plug with wet hands when the appliance is
connected to the power supply.
• DO nOT drip or spill any liquids on the housing or power cord. Do not immerse the appli-
ance or power cord in water or other liquids. Do not pour or spill any liquids on the housing
or power cord. Do not place the appliance on wet surfaces. When liquids overflowed or are
spilled on the housing or power cord, immediately unplug the appliance. Thereafter, clean
the appliance and let it dry for at least 1 day. (See: ›Care and Cleaning‹) Do not clean the
appliance in an automatic dishwasher.
• Do not operate the appliance without the drip tray to avoid risk of overheating, fire and
electric shock!
