THERMAL RE-SET
The machine is supplied with a thermal re-set switch. The switch will activate
when the machine becomes too hot. This condition should not occur during
normal use. To re-set the switch:
• Isolate the machine from the mains supply.
• Safely support the machine - to access the underside.
• Using a cross-head screwdriver, open the cover plate.
• Using a suitable tool, insert the tool through the aperture and press the
metal switch until it snaps closed. The switch will close correctly, only if the
machine is cool enough.
• Replace the cover plate and screws.
• Power-on the machine.
