Mains Supply (AC 230 V

Ó

, 50 Hz only)

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not 
suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach 
a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or 
consult your dealer.
BE SURE to replace the fuse only with an identical approved type, as 
originally fitted, and to replace the fuse cover.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off ensure to remove the fuse and 
dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by 
inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT make any connection to the terminal which is marked with the letter 
E or by the safety earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured in accordance 
with the following code:

                                                        Blue to N (Neutral) or Black
                                                        Brown to L (Live) or Red

As these colours 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.
