Main supply (AC 230/240V~, 50Hz)

DO NOT cut off the main plug from equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power point in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer.

THE LETTER ‘E’, BY THE EARTH SYMBOL OR COL- OURED GREEN OR YELLOW.

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

BE SURE to replace the fuse only with an identical approved type, as originally fitted and to replace the fuse cover.

If none the less the main plug is cut off be sure to remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the main supply.

IMPORTANT (in the other countries)

If the available socket outlet is not suitable for the plug supplied with this equipment, it should be cut off and an appropriate three pin plug fitted. With alternative plugs an approved fuse must be fitted in the plug.

NOTE: The plug severed from the main leads must be destroyed as a plug with bared flexible cords is hazardous if engaged in a live socket outlet. In the event of replacing the plug fuse, use a fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362, i.e. carrying the ASA mark, rating as marked on plug.
