Warning and Safety instructions

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly 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).

Safe operation of the appliance is only assured if it has been installed

and connected in accordance with these operating and installation instructions.

This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as

ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Installation work, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by

suitably qualified and competent persons in accordance with national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not be held liable.

Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

it has been switched off at the wall socket and the plug has been withdrawn.

the mains fuse is withdrawn, or

the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable).

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

Use

Never store explosive materials in the appliance. Thermostats

switching on may produce sparks which could present a fire hazard. Flammable compounds could explode.

Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals, as these will cause

the seals to deteriorate and become porous with time.

Do not block the ventilation gaps in the appliance as this would impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase

the electricity consumption and could cause damage to the appliance.
