For Electrical Contracting (N.I.C.E.I.C.).
Each oven is equipped with a data plate which can be found on the right hand side of
the inner frame when the oven door is open, indicating the rated input and voltage at
which the oven should operate.
Important: this appliance must be earthed.
This oven must be fitted with a 13 amp plug to BS 1363 incorporating a 13 amp (BS 1362)
fuse and supplied via a suitable 13 amp switched socket, placed in an accessible position
adjacent to the oven.
For your safety please read the following information:
• The electrical connections of the appliance must be carried out in compliance with the
provisions and standards in force.
• Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
• This appliance operates from a 3 pin 13 amp plug. The voltage rating is 230 volt and
should be protected by a 13 Amp fuse either in the plug or distribution board.
• The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with 13 amp
fuse. Should the fuse require replacement it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13
Amps and approved to BS1362.
• The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is replaced.
In the event of the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a
replacement cover has been obtained.
• If the moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed
for any other reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off plug disposed of
safely to prevent the hazard of electric shock.
• There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket
outlet.
