Finally, lock the power supply cable with the special cable clamp.
Use a two-pole switch conforming with national laws in force (contact gap of at least 3 mm, preferably
equipped with fuses) to disconnect the appliance's power supply.
Before starting up the appliance, check that the power rating matches that given on the nameplate. If
the appliance is not supplied with a power supply cable, choose one of the following installation modes:
- Connection to mains with a rigid pipe (if the appliance has no cable clamp); use a cable with a minimum
3x1,5 mm
