This is a fixed adapter. This means that once the adapter has been plugged or pressed onto the Schuko plug, it can no longer be separated from the Schuko plug. The adapter and plug form a single unit. A plug adapted in this way can be used like a "normal" Swiss plug and remain plugged in permanently.
The fixed connection of adapter and Schuko plug must be like this. It is required by law if the appliance was purchased for use in Switzerland only. Adapters that do not establish a fixed connection (e.g. travel adapters) are prohibited.
If the Nespresso machine was purchased from a Swiss dealer and was delivered with a Schuko plug but no adapter was included, complain. The dealer MUST supply the adapter.

Digitec (or any other Swiss retailer) is obliged to supply electrical appliances with a Swiss plug. If the appliance is supplied with a foreign plug, a suitable replacement cable should be supplied if the mains cable is pluggable or alternatively if the mains cable is permanently connected, a suitable adapter should be supplied.
If the appliance is delivered without a suitable plug, complain to the customer service and insist on a cable or an adapter, free of charge.
