Important notes for users in theU.K.

Mains plugThis apparatus is fitted with an approved 13Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plugproceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3 Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socketoutlets, it should be cut off and an appropriateplug fitted in its place.If the mains plug contains a fuse, this shouldhave a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuseis used, the fuse at the distribution boardshould not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of toavoid a possible shock hazard should it beinserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plugThe wires in the mains lead are coloured withthe following code: blue = neutral (N),brown = live (L).

¶ As these colours may not correspond with thecolour markings identifying the terminals inyour plug, proceed as follows:– Connect the blue wire to the terminalmarked N or coloured black.– Connect the brown wire to the terminalmarked L or coloured red.– Do not connect either wire to the earthterminal in the plug, marked E (or e) orcoloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certainthat the cord grip is clamped over the sheathof the lead - not simply over the two wires.
