Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.To
change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
aRemove fuse cover and fuse.
bFix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp,A.S.T.A.
or BSI approved type.
c Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 3
Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution
board should not be greater than 3 Amp.
Note:The severed plug must be disposed off to avoid a possible
shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket
elsewhere.

How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code:
blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L).
As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or
coloured black.
Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or
coloured red.
Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the
plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and
yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip
is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the
two wires.
