Important:
This apparatus is supplied with an approved moulded 13A plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE - "NEUTRAL" ("N") BROWN - "LIVE" ("L")
GREEN & YELLOW - "EARTH" ("E")
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or by the Earth symbol
or coloured GREEN or GREEN AND YELLOW.
2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured BLACK.
3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which marked with the letter "L" or coloured RED.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the three wires.
