ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply 
through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or 
because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following 
the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as 
insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard.

If the colours of the wires in the power cable do not agree with the markings 
on the plug:

• The BLUE wire must be 

connected to the 
terminal which is 
marked N or coloured 
black.

• The BROWN wire must 

be connected to the 
terminal which is 
marked L or coloured 
red.

• The YELLOW AND 

GREEN wire must be 
connected to the terminal which is marked E or 

 or coloured green.

We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply 
through a Residual Current Device (RCD)

If you are not sure, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT try to do any 
repairs. 

WARNING! Read these electrical safety instructions thoroughly 
before connecting the product to the mains supply.

coloured in accordance with the following code:
