Fuse replacement
If the mains lead of this
appliance is fitted with a
BS 1363A 13amp fused plug,
to change a fuse in this type
of plug use an A.S.T.A.
approved fuse to BS 1362
type and proceed as
follows:
1.
Remove the fuse cover (A)
and fuse (B).
2.
Fit replacement 13A fuse
into fuse cover.
3.
Refit both into plug.
Important:
The fuse cover must be
refitted when changing a
fuse and if the fuse cover is
lost the plug must not be
used until a correct
replacement is fitted.
Correct replacement are
identified by the colour
insert or the colour
embossed in words on the
base of the plug.
Replacement fuse covers are
available from your local
electrical store.
Connection to a
rewirable plug
If the fitted plug is not
suitable for your socket
outlet, then it should be cut
off and disposed of in order
to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted
into a 13A socket elsewhere.
A suitable alternative plug
should then be fitted to the
cable.
The wires in the mains lead
are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
BLUE - “NEUTRAL” (“N”)
BROWN - “LIVE” (“L”)
GREEN AND 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 is marked with the
letter “L” or coloured red.
FOR THE REPUBLIC OF
IRELAND ONLY
The information given in
respect of Great Britain will
frequently apply, but a third
type of plug and socket is
also used, the 2-pin, side
earth type. In this case, the
wire which is coloured
GREEN AND YELLOW must
be connected to the EARTH
contact, and the two wires
to the two pins, irrespective
of colour. The supply to the
socket must be fitted with a
16 amp fuse.
