Connecting to Power Supply

The voltage and frequency of the
machine (see rating plate) must match
the voltage and frequency of the power
connection.
The minimum fuse protection of the
power connection must comply with the
specifications – see "Specifications".
The machine must be connected to the
power supply via an earth-leakage
circuit breaker to disconnect the power
supply if the differential current to earth
exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms.
The power connection must correspond
to IEC 60364-1 and relevant national
regulations.
The mains voltage may drop for a short
term when high-performance electric
devices are switched on. Should at the
same time the network impedance of the
home connection be higher than the
value Z (see "Specifications"), the
max
short term drop of the mains voltage
may affect other electrical consumers
(e.g. flickering of lamps). Please ask
your local energy provider for the
network impedance of the home
connection.
Extension cord
The design of the extension cord must at
least fulfill the same features as the
connecting cord on the machine.
Observe the design marking (type
designation) on the connecting cord.
42
The cores in the cord must have the
following minimum cross-section
depending on the mains voltage and
cord length.
Cord length Minimum cross-
section
220 V – 240 V:
Up to 20 m 1.5 mm
20 m to 50 m 2.5 mm
100 V – 127 V:
Up to 10 m AWG 14 / 2.0 mm
10 m to 30 m AWG 12 / 3.5 mm
Connection to the power supply socket
Before connection to the power supply,
check that the machine is switched off –
see "Switching off the machine"
Plug the power cord or extension

cord into a properly installed outlet

Switching On

Turn on water supply

NOTICE
The machine may only be switched on

and the water supply has been turned
on. Otherwise the machine may be
damaged due to lack of water.
