3 pin plug fitted in accordance with the instructions given below.
IF YOU ARE IN ANY DOUBT, PLEASE CONTACT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN.
WARNING: Dispose of a plug that has been cut from the power supply cord,
as such a plug is hazardous if inserted in a live 13 amp socket outlet elsewhere in the house.

accordance with the following code:
Green & Yellow Earth

before connecting the cord to a plug.
If you are in any doubt please consult a qualified
electrician.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead
of this coffee maker may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
E The wire that is coloured GREEN & YELLOW must be connected to the
terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E, or the earth
Symbol , or coloured GREEN or GREEN & YELLOW.

E This appliance requires a 13 amp fuse.
E Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTA marked fuse, approved to
BS 1362, of the same rating must be used.
E Always replace the fuse cover after fitting a fuse. The plug must NOT be
used if the cover is omitted or lost until a replacement is obtained - make
certain that only the correct fuse cover is used and fitted.
E For plugs with a detachable fuse cover, the replacement must be the same
as the colour insert in the base of the plug, or as directed by the embossed working on the base of the plug.
