ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

This appliance is fitted with a fused three-pin plug to BS1363 which is suitable for use 
in all homes fitted with sockets to current specifications. If the fitted plug is not suitable 
for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and carefully disposed of. To avoid an electric 
shock, do not insert the discarded plug into a socket.

This product is a class 2 electrical appliance and does not include an earth wire.

FITTING A NEW PLUG

If for any reason you need to fit a new plug, the flexible mains lead must be connected 
as shown here. The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in 
accordance with the following code:

Connect 

BLUE

 to 

Neutral (N)

Connect 

BROWN

 to 

Live (L)

13 amp fuse to be used 

If the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance do not correspond with the 
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows. The wire 
which is coloured blue MUST be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 
N (Neutral). The wire which is coloured brown MUST be connected to the terminal which 
is marked with the letter L (Live).

Before refitting the plug cover, check that there are no cut or stray strands of wire inside 
the plug. Use a 13 amp BS1362 fuse. Only BSI or ASTA approved fuses should be used. If 
you are at all unsure which plug or fuse to use, always refer to a qualified electrician.

Note:

 after replacing or changing a fuse on a moulded plug which has a fuse cover, the 

cover must be refitted to the plug; the appliance must not be used without a fuse cover. 
If lost, replacement fuse covers can be obtained from an electrical shop. This appliance 
complies with the following EU Directives: 2014/35/EU (Low Voltage Directive) and 
2014/30/EU (EMC Directive).
