This appliance may be fitted with a non-rewireable 
plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a 
nonrewireable 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 insertion into 
a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

carefully before attempting to connect this unit to

coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected 
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or 
coloured red.
No connection is to be made to the earth terminal of 
the plug.
If a 13 Amp (BS 1363) Plug is used, a 3 Amp Fuse 
must be fitted, or if any other type of Plug is used a 3 
or 5 Amp Fuse must be fitted, either in the Plug or 
Adaptor, or on the Distribution Board.
