Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
Thisapparatusisttedwithanapproved13Ampplug.Tochangeafusein
this type of plug proceed as follows:
1Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3 Retthefusecover.
Ifthettedplugisnotsuitableforyoursocketoutlets,itshouldbecutoff
andanappropriateplugtted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 5 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of 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.
