Connection cable
Error message «U1»
Electrical connections
Electrical connections must made by trained electricians in accordance with the guidelines and standards for low voltage
installations and the specifications of the local electricity supply companies.
A plug-in appliance may only be connected to a socket outlet with earthing contact, installed according to specifications. An
all-pole mains isolating device with 3 mm contact opening should be provided in the house wiring system. Switches, plug and
socket devices, circuit breakers and fusible cut-outs which are accessible after installation and which have all-poles switching
are permissible as isolating devices. Effective earthing and separately installed neutral and earth conductors ensure safe and
fault-free operation. After installation, live parts and cables with basic insulation must not be accessible. Old installations should
always be checked.
The connection cable may only be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s customer services or a similarly qualified
person.
