Installation and connection

Electrical connection U.K.

All electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK).

Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation work has been carried out.

The appliance is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to a 230-240V mains supply.

Please ensure the connection data quoted on the data plate match the household mains supply.

Connection should be made via a suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation.

For extra safety it is advisable to protect the machine with a suitable residual current device (RCD). Contact a qualified electrician for advice.

Do not connect via an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363

The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted).

Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier.
