This appliance is double insulated in
accordance with EN 60335; therefore
no earth wire is required.
Prevent body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces (e.g. metal railings,
lamp-posts etc.).
Electric safety can be further improved by
using a high-sensitivity (30 mA/30 mS) residual
current device (RCD).
Should your mains plug need replacing and
you are competent to do this, proceed as
instructed below. If you are in doubt, contact
an authorised repair agent or a qualified
electrician.
Disconnect the plug from the supply and
remove the fuse from the plug.
Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug
with bared copper conductors is dangerous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.
Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs
fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
Use 5 Amperes fuses.
The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points
in the plug (see above).
Brown is for Live (L) (2), blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
Before replacing the top cover of the mains
plug ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding
the outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the
leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.
If the plug has a fuse cover, make sure that the
fuse cover is fitted. Do not use the plug if the
fuse cover is missing or damaged.
