Electrical connection
◆
For your own safety read the following instructions carefully before you try to plug this video into the mains.

Check that the voltage on the rating plate matches the voltage in your home. The rating plate is
on the back panel of the video.
If the mains plug fitted to this appliance is not suitable for your mains sockets, remove the plug and
replace it following instructions below. (See over the page for how to get rid of the original plug).
The wires of the mains lead

The colours of wires in the mains lead fitted to this video may not correspond with the coloured
markings of the terminals in the plug.
◆
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.
◆
Do not connect any wire to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.
If the terminals in the plug are not marked or you are in any doubt about the correct connections,
consult a qualified electrician.
Moulded plugs
◆
If it is necessary to remove a moulded plug from the mains cable, you should cut it off and replace it with a
suitable replacement.
◆
You cannot use the moulded plug for any other appliance, so remove the fuse and throw it away
immediately and safely to prevent anyone, especially children, from plugging it into a wall socket which
would be very dangerous.
◆
If the mains lead ever needs replacing, a qualified electrician should replace it with a flexible cord from the
manufacturer.
◆
After you have replaced a fuse in the plug, you must put the fuse cover back on. If you have lost the fuse
cover, you must get a replacement cover. The replacement fuse cover should be the same colour as the
coloured insert in the base of the plug or the colour that is embossed in words in the base of the plug, or
anywhere else on the plug. Always mention this colour when you order a replacement fuse cover.
◆
Only 5-amp replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted.
