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 electrical outlet must be protected by a 16A safety cut-out switch.
•
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 safety of the unit is only guaranteed if it is connected to a properly
•
installed protective conductor system. Use of the unit without a protective conductor
is prohibited. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be
made responsible for damages due to a missing or damaged protective conductor.
15.7.1
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.
