GB
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate 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 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 follow the instructions provided below:
