15.6 Setup

15.6.1

Setup location requirements:

In order to ensure the safe and trouble-free operation of the device, the setup location
must fulfill the following prerequisites:
 The device must be set up on a solid, even, horizontal surface capable of supporting
the vacuum sealer and any items to be vacuum-sealed.
 The device is not intended to be installed in a wall or a built-in cupboard.
 Select a setup location where children cannot reach the hot sealing strip of the device.
 Do not set up the unit in a hot or damp environment or near flammable material.
 Do not place the device near a gas or electric cooker or an oven
 To operate correctly, the unit requires sufficient air flow. Leave at least 10 centimeters
(4 inches) of space on all sides when setting up the unit.
 Do not move the vacuum sealer when it is in operation.
 The electrical outlet must be easily accessible so that the plug can be quickly
disconnected in the case of an emergency.
 The setup of this unit in non-stationary locations (e.g., boats, airplanes, motor homes)
must be carried out by a qualified electrician, provided they guarantee the prerequisites
for the safe use of the unit.

15.7 Electrical connection

In order to ensure the safe and trouble-free operation of the device, the following
instructions must be observed for the electrical connection:
 Before plugging in the unit, compare the voltage and frequency data on the vacuum
sealer's rating plate (found on the bottom of the unit) with that of your electrical
network. This data must be compatible. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
 The use of a multi-plug outlet adapter is not recommended due to fire danger.
 Inspect the power cord for damage and ensure it doesn't run under the unit or over hot
or sharp surfaces.
 The electrical outlet must be protected by a 16A safety cut-out switch.
 The electrical safety of the unit is only guaranteed if it is connected to a properly
installed protective conductor system. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. The
manufacturer cannot be made responsible for damages due to a missing or damaged
protective conductor.

Extension cords

If an extension cord is used:
► The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical
rating of the unit.
► The cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over a countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
