Check the Voltage
Before connecting the vacuum to an electrical supply,
ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate located
beneath the vacuum is of the correct voltage for your
electricity supply. If it is not, do not use the vacuum but refer
back to your dealer.
Connecting to your Electricity Supply
• Permanently connected to the vacuum is a mains supply
(2-core) cable fitted with a non-rewirable plug
incorporating a 13A fuse.
• In the event of the fuse requiring replacement the fuse
cover should be removed using a small screwdriver. The
old fuse MUST be replaced by a 13A ASTA approved
BS1362 fuse or a BSI approved fuse. The cover must be
replaced before the plug is used again. In the event of loss
of the fuse cover, replacements can be obtained from your
Electrolux Retailers and must be of the same colour as
indicated by the coloured insert on the base of the plug.
• If difficulty is experienced in obtaining a replacement,
contact
Electrolux Customer HELPLINE 08445 614614.
Calls to this number will be charged at 5p per minute at all
times from a BT Landline.
•
In no circumstances must the plug be used without a
correct fuse cover fitted.
• If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for
your socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate
plug fitted.
• Remove the fuse from the cut off plug.
• The cut off plug should then be disposed of to prevent the
hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a 13
amp socket in another part of your home.
• The wires in the mains cable of this appliance are
coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue:
Neutral. Brown: Live.
• As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of this
appliance 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.
• If using a three-pin plug, do not make any connection
to the terminal marked with the letter E or by the
earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
This vacuum is double insulated and no earth
connection is necessary.
• It is in your interest to ensure that the plug is correctly
attached to the mains cable. In case of doubt, consult a
qualified electrician, as Electrolux cannot regard the repair
of faults on the plug connection as a service that can be
given free of charge under the terms of the guarantee.
