FOR FUTURE USE
IMPORTANT
FOR OPERATION ON A 220-240 VOLT

If your appliance is fitted with a nonrewireable BS 1363 plug it must not be used
unless a 13 amp (ASTA approved to BS
1362) fuse is fitted in the carrier contained
in the plug. (Spares may be obtained from
your BISSELL supplier). If for any reason the
plug is cut off, it must be disposed of, as
it is an electric shock hazard should it be
inserted into a mains socket.
