A) If your appliance comes tted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not t your socket, the plug should
be cut o from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug tted, as below.
WARNING:Very carefully dispose of the cut o plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in
the house as this could cause a shock hazard.

the base of the plug.
