If in doubt contact a qualified electrician or the near-
est Bosch Service Centre.
WARNING! Inadequate extension cables can be
dangerous. Extension cable, plug and socket
must be of watertight construction and intended
for outdoor use.
Cable connections should be kept dry and off the
ground.
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to
use a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping
current of not more than 30 mA. Always check your
RCD every time you use it.
For products not sold in GB:
WARNING: For your safety, it is required that the plug
attached to the machine is connected with the exten-
sion cord. The coupling of the extension cord must be
protected against splash water, be made of rubber or
coated with rubber. The extension cord must be used
with a cable strain relief.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of
damage at regular intervals and may only be used if in
perfect condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a Bosch Service Centre.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with
an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse
(ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its
place by an authorised customer service agent. The re-
placement plug should have the same fuse rating as
the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a pos-
sible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a
mains socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual cur-
rent device (RCD) with a rated residual current of
30 mA or less.
