Note: The machine can only be used on TN (earthing to neutral)
and TT (earthed neutral) type supplies. Where a machine has to
be installed on an IT (impeding or isolated neutral) supply, there
is a solution which consists of inserting an isolating transformer
and locally putting on the machine on TN or TT supply.
a) Three phase, single voltage 2 speed motor
• A 3 pin + earth standardised wall socket with a 20 A fuse is
required, as well as a matching watertight plug for the power
cable.
The machine must be earthed with the green and yellow
wire.
• Check the direction of rotation of the rotor at both speeds:
- Turn the mains power switch (depending on model) in a cloc-
kwise direction to the I position.
- Turn the knob G to the I low speed position (see § 3.1).
- Check the direction in which the rotor is turning through the
transparent lid (anti-clockwise - as per the arrow marked
on the rotor handle).
- If it is turning in the wrong direction, change over the two phase
wires of the plug.
b) Three phase, single voltage one speed motor with frequency variator
• The cutter is supplied with a single phase current up to its
variator, which transforms the current to supply the three phase
motor.
• A 2 pin + earth standardised wall socket with a 20 A fuse is
required, that is easily accessible.
• Check that the mains voltage matches that on the rating plate
of the machine and the power supply cable.
• Warning to the installer:
This cutter with electronic speed variation is equipped with a fi lter
built into the variator which earths any system interference without
passing through the variator. In order to be effective, the installation
must have a good quality earth, otherwise the interference could
pass through the variator and damage it.
The machine must be earthed with the green and yellow
No earth plug = no protection = risk of breakdown.
Note: The earth values are defi ned according to the residual
differential current (see NFC 15100 standard and PROMONTELEC
guide) and must be checked by an electrician.
Damage caused by inadequate earthing is not covered by
the guarantee.
In certain circumstances depending on the sensitivity
of the protective cut-outs, it may be necessary to
install SI-type (super immunity) devices to prevent
untimely triggering.
To PAT test the Electrolux Range of Food Preparation Equipment,
the PCB board needs to be disconnected before any test is done.
This is due to the fact that the boards are fi tted with a grounding
diode that can give incorrect result during such a test. Also on a
standard appliance a fl ash test of 25 amps and up to 3000v is
used but, as you would expect, to use this on equipment, which
has a printed circuit, board would be quite destructive to that
board. We would recommend the use of a PAT tester approved
for computer systems which use a lower rate of amps.
The appliance is perfectly safe and is CE certifi cated. There are
two ways to get overcome this problem.
· Disconnect the board as instructed and test using test for
PC’s,
· Or install the mixer on a fused spur (no plug) as this takes it
away from being a portable appliance and the PAT test is then
not needed.

3.4 USE OF THE EQUIPMENT
• Always begin in speed I before changing to speed II.
• Use speed I in PULSE mode to start or fi nish any work which
requires attention or precise fi nishing (see §3.1b).
Note: Liquids or ingredients may be introduced by the lid funnel
whilst processing is taking place.
- The height of the central tube of the bowl ensures that liquids
will not leak.
- The angle of the blades and the setting of the distance between
them ensure a rapid and consistent mix.
Never insert your hand or a hard object in the bowl when the
machine is in operation.
ALWAYS install the rotor after positioning the bowl
