electric shocks, in case it should be plugged into a 10 Amp socket in another part of your home.

Important

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug.

To fit the plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter «E» or the earth symbol , or coloured green and yellow.

Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter «N» or coloured black.

Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter «L» or coloured red.

The plug moulded on to the lead incorporates a fuse. For replacement, use a 10 Amp BS1363 fuse. Only ASTA or BSI approved fuses should be used.

The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug.

A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Tricity Bendix Service Centre (see page 7).

Avoid connecting the tumble dryer to the same socket as your washing machine (or any other appliance) by means of an adaptor. Have an extra socket installed if necessary, by a qualified electrician.

Note

Installation, and, in particular, connection to the electric mains and to the discharge vent must be carried out by a competent person or qualified electricians.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer, in the event of a breakdown.

WARNING!

The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precautions. Should the appliance power supply cable need to be replaced, this must be carried out by our Service Centre.
