If your appliance is supplied with a
13 amp. fused plug it can be
plugged into a 13 amp socket for
immediate use. Before using the
appliance please read the
instruction below.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13
amp ASTA approved fuse to BS
1362 should always be used, and
the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse
cover is lost, the plug must not be
used until a replacement is
obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is
fitted, it must be of the correct
colours as indicated by the
coloured marking or the colour that
is embossed in words on the base
of the plug. Replacements can be
obtained directly from your nearest
Service Depot.

If your appliance has a non-
rewireable moulded plug and you
should wish to remove it to re-route
the mains cable through partitions,
units etc., please esure that either:

amp re-wireable plug bearing the
BSI mark of approval
- or:
- the mains cable is wired directly
into a 13 amp cable outlet,
controlled by a switch, (in
compliance with BS 5733) which
is accessible without moving the
