Safety guide
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including:
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of
the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall
not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made
by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised. Keep the appliance and
its cord out of reach of children less than 8 years old.
Always ensure the voltage on the rating label corresponds to the voltage in your
home.
Check the power cord and plug regularly for any damage. If the cord or the plug
is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified electrician or a service repair
centre. If in doubt please contact our customer service team.
The appliance is intended for domestic use only. Industrial or commercial use
will void the warranty. The supplier cannot be held responsible for injury or
damage if the appliance has been used for anything other than its intended use.
Incorrect operation and use can damage the appliance and cause injury to the
user.
Do not use the appliance if it has been dropped or damaged in any way. If the
unit has been damaged take the unit for examination and or repair by an
authorised service agent.
Do not immerse or expose the motor assembly, plug or the power cord in water
or any other liquid for any reason.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by
someone who is suitably qualified to avoid a potential hazard.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. Ensure that the
cord is not in a position where it can be pulled or tripped over accidentally.
Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces and do not place the cord near hot
gas, electric burners or in a heated oven.

Electrical information
Please note:
It is extremely important that the wires or cores in the flex are connected to the correct
terminals in the plug. If the colour of the mains lead of the appliance does not
correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals
in your plug proceed as follows:
The
Live
(
Brown
) wire
connects to the right- most
live (L) terminal nearest to
the fuse.
The
Neutral
(
Blue
) wire
connects to the left-most
neutral (N) terminal.
The
Earth
(
Green and
Yellow
) wire connects to
the central, top most
earthed (
E
) terminal.
Warning
:
If the appliance is double insulated indicated by the double insulated symbol:
it should not have an earth wire or earth connection.
Plug
The plug must be protected by the correct AMP fuse; this will be indicated on the case
of the plug. Only BSI or ASTA approved fuses should be used. When changing the fuse
always replace it with a fuse that is of the same identical rating as the original. If you
are unsure about which plug or fuse to use, always refer to a qualified electrician.
Please note after replacing the fuse, ensure that the cover is correctly fitted back onto
the plug. Never attempt to run the appliance if the plug does not have a cover. If a
moulded plug is fitted and has to be removed take great care in disposing of the plug
and severed cable, it must be destroyed to prevent it from engaging into a socket. If the
supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by a service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
