Important information for correct disposal of the product in accordance with EC Directive 2002/96/EC.

At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken
to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this servi­ce. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for
the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent
materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.As a reminder
of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a cros­sed-out wheeled dustbin.

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incor-

porate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the
plug should be cut off from the mains lead, and an
appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug
after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp
socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a
shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the
circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must

be re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp
Asta approved fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing
the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a
replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your
nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct
replacement fuse cover is that as marked on the base
of the plug.

B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please fol-

low the instructions provided below:

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
