• the hose is as short as possible, without twists or kinks.
• the hose is not longer than 750 mm (or refer to applicable local regulations) and does
not come into contact with sharp edges, corners or moving parts. Use a single rubber
hose only; never connect the appliance with more than one rubber hose.
• the hose is not under tension, twisted, kinked, or too tightly bent, neither while the
appliance is in use nor while it is being connected or disconnected.
• the hose does not come into contact with any part of the cooker with a surface tempe-
rature of 70°C or above (or refer to applicable local regulations).
• thehoseisnotsubjecttoexcessiveheatbydirectexposuretoueproductsorby
