WARNING - this appliance must be earthed!
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of an
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor
and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
installed and earthed in accordance with all local standards and requirements.
Do not modify the plug under any circumstances. If the plug does not fit your
outlet, consult a licensed electrician and have the outlet changed.
Electrical connection
Installation (Cont.)
Power supply system
• As the maximum current through the unit is 10A when you are using the heating
function, make sure the power supply system (current, power voltage and wire) at
your home can meet the normal loading requirements of electrical appliances.
• Before connecting and turning on the appliance, ensure the electrical voltage and
circuit frequency correspond to those indicated on the appliance rating label.
• WARNING! Only connect the washing machine to a grounded (earthed) electrical
outlet. Do not overload the wall outlet, as overloading can result in fire or electric
shock. Insert the power plug securely. Do not use a power adaptor or extension cord.
Electrical installation advice
• To avoid electric shock, fire and malfunction, do not install this machine in a damp
place. Do not pull out or insert the plug with wet hands or bare feet. Do not expose
the appliance, cord or plug to rain, moisture or other liquid.
• Do not kink or damage the power cord, and position it out of the way so no one steps
on or places anything on the cord or against it.
• Ensure the dryer is unplugged from the power supply before installation. The plug
must be accessible after installation.
• CAUTION! Use of a power adaptor or extension cord is not recommended. However,
if you must use an extension cord, make sure it is earthed, has been approved, and
has the same or higher electrical rating (voltage and power) as the product. Arrange
the extended cord so that it is not subjected to splashing or ingress of moisture.
• Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety switch), we
recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating current not exceeding
30mA to provide additional safety protection when using electrical appliances. See
your electrician for professional advice.
• All electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel, and all instructions in
this manual as well as local safety regulations must be observed.
