Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 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 to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp
socket elsewhere.

How to 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 e) 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.Copyright in the U.K.: Recording
and playback of material may require consent. See
