MAINS CONNECTION
Your unit has been supplied with a mains lead with a fitted plug. This is identified by the fuse holder in the base of the plug. Please read the following safety instructions before use.
1 If the fitted plug is cut off from the mains lead then the plug must be disposed of safely. NEVER under any circumstances insert such a plug into a 13 amp socket.
2 NEVER under any circumstances use the appliance or mains lead without the fuse cover fitted. This is the little cover fixed into the base of plug to hold the fuse in place.
3 If you lose the fuse cover then please contact any electrical dealer for a replacement or ring our helpline.
4 A replacement fuse must be rated at 13 amp. These must be manufactured and approved to BS 1362.
