Water Connection; Operations - Kärcher HD 6/12 CX Betriebsanleitung

The maximum tolerable mains impedance
at the electrical contact point (see Techni-
cal Data) must not be exceeded.
The appliance should always be connected
to the electrical mains using a plug. It is for-
bidden to permanently connect the appli-
ance to the power supply. The plug is only
for mains separation.
Check the power cord with mains plug for
damage before every use. If the power cord
is damaged, please arrange immediately
for the exchange by an authorized custom-
er service or a skilled electrician.
The plug and coupling of the extension ca-
ble used must be watertight.
Use the extension cord that has an ade-
quate cross-section (see "Technical Data")
and unwind it fully from the cable drum.
Unsuitable extension cables can be haz-
ardous. Only use extension cables out-
doors which have been approved for this
purpose and labelled with a sufficient cable
cross section:
For connection values, see type plate/tech-
nical data.
