Factory fitted moulded mains plug
1. The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use
only a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.
2. The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the
fuse in the moulded plug.
3. Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If
the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in
your home or the cable is too short to reach a power
point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adapter, or consult your dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the
fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a
possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to
the mains supply.
IMPORTANT : The wires in the mains lead are coloured
in accordance with the following code:
Blue : Neutral
Brown : Live
Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a
three-pin plug.
