Fuses
Your appliance comes fitted with a plug and a 13 amp (13A) fuse. If

and ASTA approved to BS1362. To change the fuse lift the holder to

fuse and push fuse holder down into the locked position. Correct
replacement is identified by colour coding or the marking on base of
plug.

position and the top cover firmly replaced.
