Power consumption

See the product nameplate

Residual current device

It is recommended to use an automatic residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) whose tripping current complies with current standards.

WARNING: The product must be connected to the power supply through an all-pole disconnecting device that ensures contact separation and complies with overvoltage category III. Such a device must withstand maximum connection loads and comply with current standards.

  • Make sure that the electrical characteristics on the nameplate match the power supply.
  • The appliance operates on 220-240 V AC / 50 Hz.
  • Abnormal voltage fluctuations may prevent the appliance from starting, damage the temperature regulator or compressor, and cause unusual noise during operation. In such a case, an automatic voltage regulator must be installed.
  • Make sure that the power cable is not pinched under the appliance during and after transport/moving, to prevent it from being cut or damaged. If the appliance's power cord is damaged, do not continue installation and contact after-sales service.
  • Make sure that the power source, socket, and fuses match the data on the technical data plate;
  • Make sure that the socket is grounded, and do not use extension cords or adapters.

HOOVER HONBQT3518E - Residual current device - 1

PRYMITKA (only for Great Britain): The appliance's power cord is equipped with

a 3-contact (grounding) plug that fits a standard 3-contact (grounding) outlet.

Never cut off or remove the third prong (ground). The outlet must remain accessible after installation.

10.2 Other tips

Using any household appliance requires following certain basic rules:

  • It is recommended to keep the plug clean: any dirt residue on the plug can cause a fire;
  • Do not pull the power cord to disconnect the appliance from the mains while it is operating;
  • Do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or feet. It is not recommended to use adapters, extension cords, or power cords;
  • In case of malfunction and/or reduced performance, turn off the device and do not touch it or make any modifications to it.
