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.
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 ) 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.
