Permanently connected to the cleaner is a mains supply (2-core) cable fitted with a non-rewirable plug
incorporating a 13A fuse.
In the event of the fuse requiring replacement the fuse cover should be removed using a small screwdriver. The
old fuse MUST be replaced by a 13A ASTA approved BS1362 fuse or a BSI approved fuse. The cover must
be replaced before the plug is used again. In the event of loss of the fuse cover, replacements can be obtained
from your Electrolux dealer or Electrical Retailers and must be of the same colour as indicated by the coloured
insert on the base of the plug.
If difficulty is experienced in obtaining a replacement, contact Electrolux on 08706 055055.
In no circumstances must the plug be used without a correct fuse cover fitted.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate
plug fitted.Remove the fuse from the cut off plug.The cut off plug should then be disposed of to prevent the
hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a 13 amp socket in another part of your home.
The wires in the mains cable of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue:
Neutral. Brown: Live. Green/Yellow: Earth.
As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured
black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter
L or coloured red.
The wire which is coloured yellow and green must be connected to the terminal which is marked with a letter
E or coloured yellow and green.
It is in your interest to ensure that the plug is correctly attached to the mains cable. In case of doubt, have
it done by a qualified electrician, as Electrolux cannot regard the repair of faults on the plug connection as
a service that can be given free of charge under the terms of the guarantee.
Thermal Cut Off
This steam cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of overheating. If the
cleaner suddenly shuts off, push the switch pedal once and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for
a possible source of overheating such as no water in the tank. If these conditions are found, fix them
and wait at least 30 minutes before attempting to use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the
cleaner back in and turn on the switch. If the cleaner still does not heat up, please call Electrolux on
08706 055055 if you reside in the UK.

BEFORE YOU START CHECK THE VOLTAGE
