The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral 
triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated 
‘dangerous voltage’ within the product’s enclosure that may be of 
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert

the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance

(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

This product complies with European Low Voltage (73/23/EEC) and
Electromagnetic Compatibility (89/336/EEC) Directives when used

Plug Fitting Instructions (UK only)

The cord supplied with this appliance is factory fitted with a 13A mains plug fitted
with a 3A fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that a 3A
one is used. If the plug needs 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 must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into
a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should it be necessary to fit a 3-
pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires should be fitted as shown in this
diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug.
Connect them 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 
GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the 
letter ‘E’ or coloured GREEN.

Note If a 13 Amp (BS 1363) type of plug is used  a 3 Amp or 5 Amp fuse must be
fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the distribution board.
