Before switching the product on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is 
the same as that indicated on the rating plate. This product is designed to operate on 
230VAC 50Hz. Connecting it to any other power source may cause damage.

This product may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the 
fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover becomes lost or 
damaged, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or due to 
damage, it should be cut off and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions 
shown below. The old plug must be disposed of safely, as insertion into a mains socket 
could cause an electrical hazard.
