The couplings of connection leads must be pro- tected against splashes and the coupling sock- ets on the leads must be made of rubber or coated with rubber.
Fixing means for the connection leads must be used.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of damage at regular intervals and may only be used if in perfect condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be re- placed by a Bosch Service Center.
