Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plugThis apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change afuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI

approved type.3 Refit the fuse cover.If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should becut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distributionboard should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possibleshock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plugThe wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code:blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L).As these colours may not correspond with the colour markingsidentifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured

black.• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured

red.• Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug,

marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and yellow).Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip isclamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the twowires.
