WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED
Connect the mains lead to a 230 volt (50Hz) domestic electrical supply via a standard 13
amp BS 1363 plug fitted with a 13 amp fuse, or a suitably fused isolator switch.
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

As the colours of the flexible cord of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
•
Connect BROWN coloured cord to plug terminal marked ‘L’ or coloured RED.
•
Connect BLUE coloured cord to plug terminal marked ‘N’ or coloured BLACK.
We strongly recommend that this unit is connected to the mains supply via a Residual
Current Device (RCD).
IMPORTANT!
If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded onto the electric cable (i.e.
non-rewireable) please note:
1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a danger
of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.
2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
3. Should you wish to replace a detachable fuse carrier, ensure that the correct
replacement is used (as indicated by marking or colour code).
4. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local dealer or most
electrical stockists.
Fuse Rating
The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating (
13 amps
) and this
replacement must be ASTA approved to BS1362.
Extension Cable
If an extension cable is fitted, ensure the minimum cross section of the conductor is 1.5mm
2
for up to 15 metres in length, and 2.5mm
2
for up to 25 metres.
