must be sufficient to meet the appliance
requirements. Use of a Groud Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) is recommended.
• Power cable plug must be within easy reach
after installation.
• If the current value of the fuse or breaker
in the house is less than 13 Amps, have a
qualified electrician install a 13 Amp fuse.

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.
B
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.
Important
Fitting a different plug
As the colours of the
wires in the mains
lead of this appliance
may not correspond
with the coloured
markings identifying
the terminals on your
plug, proceed as
follows:
1 Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol f or coloured green and
yellow or green.
2 Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured black.
3 Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked ‘L’ or coloured red.
With the alternative plugs a 13A fuse must be
fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main
fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.
