Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed 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 socket outlets,
it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its
place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used,
the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater
than 5 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a
13 Amp socket elsewhere.
Howto connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the
following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As
these colours may not correspond with the colour
markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or
coloured black.
• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or
coloured red.
• Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in
the plug, marked E (or F) or coloured green (or green
and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the
cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not
simply over the two wires.

Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packing materials, exhausted
batteries and old equipment.
