Positioning and connection

Positioning

1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.

• The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-240V).

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.

If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an

authorised technician to replace it (see Assistance). Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
