Electrical connection (UK ONLY)  
Before using this appliance ensure that the voltage indicated on the  
product corresponds with the main voltage in your home, if you are  
in any doubt about your supply contact your local electricity company.  
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug  
having a fuse of 13 amp capacity. Should this plug not fit the socket  
outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable  
plug, following the procedure outlined below.  
After the packaging has been removed, check the integrity of  
the appliance and the presence of all accessories.  
Do not use the appliance in the presence of obvious damage.  
Contact the De’Longhi Customer Services department, please  
see enclosed leaflet.  
Technical date  
Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should  
therefore be properly disposed of and not left where children might  
find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent  
danger.  
Please note: We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall  
sockets that can be switched off when the machine is not in use.

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not  
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in  
your plug, proceed as follows:  
-
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected  
to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by  
the earth symbol  
or coloured green or green and yellow.

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the termi-  
nal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the ter-

Disposal  
Recommendations for the correct disposal of the  
product in compliance with the 2002/96/CE  
European Directive.  
When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retai-  
ned in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on  
the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets,  
or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Should the mains  
lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be car-  
ried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a  
flexible cord of the same size. After replacement of a fuse in the plug,  
the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must  
not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The colour of the  
correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base  
of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour  
when ordering a replacement fuse cover. Only 13amp replacement  
fuses which are asta approved to B.S. 1362 should be fitted.  
This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the suppres-  
sion of radio interference.  
The product must not be disposed of as urban waste at the end  
of its working life.  
It must be taken to appropriate local authority separate waste  
collection centres or to dealers providing this service.  
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible  
negative consequences for the environment and health deri-  
ving from unsuitable disposal and allows to recover the mate-  
rials of which it is made in order to make significant savings in  
energy and resources.  
The product has the crossed-out wheeled bin mark as a re-  
minder of the obligation to dispose of household appliances  
separately.  
Warning - this appliance must be earthed
