Plug Fitting Instructions (UK only)

The cord supplied with this appliance is factory fitted with a UK mains plug fitted with a 5 amp fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that a 5 amp one is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into a mains socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should it be necessary to fit a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires should be fitted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them 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.

The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘E’ or coloured GREEN.

If a standard 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 5 amp fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is used a 5 amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the distribution board.
