Electrical Requirements
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should always be followed.
Check that the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds with that of your local
network before connecting the appliance to the mains power supply.
If your appliance is supplied with a non-rewirable plug fitted to the mains lead and should
the fuse need replacing, you must use an ASTA or BS approved type conforming to BS1362
and of the same rating. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician for advice or assistance.
If you need to remove the plug - DISCONNECT IT FROM THE MAINS and cut it o the
mains lead. You must then dispose of it IMMEDIATELY and SAFELY. Never attempt
to re-use the plug or insert it into a socket outlet as there is a serious danger of an
electric shock.
