Electrical requirements
Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the
frequency shown in the rating label corresponds to your electricity supply.
We recommend that this appliance be connected to the mains supply via a suitable
switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position.
Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or need replacing at any time, it
must be replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained from a
Authorised Service Agent.

WARNING:
This appliance must be earthed
If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off
and an appropriate plug fitted.
Destroy the old plug, which is cut off as a plug with a bared cord could cause a shock
hazard if inserted into a socket elsewhere in the house.
The moulded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be
replaced an ASTA approved BS1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not forget to
refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until a
replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the
same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any
good electrical store.
