This appliance may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it
is necessary to change the fuse in a non-rewireable plug the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the
plug must not be used until a replacement available from the
appliance manufacturer is obtained.
It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover
corresponds with the rating marking on the base of the plug.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your
socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an
appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions
below. The plug removed must be disposed of safely as
