the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured
BLACK.

to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or
coloured RED.

• If a 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used a 13 amp (BS 1362)
fuse must be fitted either in the plug, adaptor or at the
fuse board.
NOTE:

when changing the fuse. Should the fuse cover become
lost, the plug must not be used until the correct
replacement fuse cover is obtained from our service
department or stockist.
