Electrical requirements
Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your

which must be A.C. (Alternating Current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the
plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be
removed and the appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed from the mains lead, if
severed, must be destroyed as a plug with a bared
flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket
outlet.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing, a 13
amp BS1362 fuse must be fitted.
WARNING: This appliance must be earthed.
