IMPORTANT NOTICE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with

a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of

the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug

and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to

BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed.

If the cover is detachable and a replacement is

required, it must be of the same colour as the fuse

tted in the plug. Replacement covers are

available from your dealer. If the tted plug is not

suitable for the power points in your house or the

cable is not long enough to reach a power point,

you should obtain a suitable safety approved

extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

ENG - 3

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the

plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of

the plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains

socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the

wires directly into a mains socket. A plug and fuse

must be used at all times.

correspond to the coloured markings identifying

the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The

wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the

terminal marked with the letter N or coloured

BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must

be connected to the terminal marked with the

letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

WARNING : DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO

THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH

THE LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL ,

OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.
