Electrical connection U.K.
All electrical work should be carried out
only by a suitably qualified and
competent person, in strict accordance
with national and local safety
regulations.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance while installation work is
being carried out.
The appliance is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug for connection
to a 230-240V mains supply. The
voltage, rated load and fuse rating
are given on the data plate. Please
ensure these match the household
mains supply.
Connection should be made via a fused
plug and suitable switched socket
which is easily accessible after
installation.
For extra safety it is advisable to install
a residual current device (RCD), with a
trip current of 30 mA (in accordance
with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100, section
739).
Do not connect via an extension lead.
Important
The wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Green/yellow = earth

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
If this machine is fitted with a
non-rewireable plug and the socket
outlets are not suitable for the plug
supplied or if the existing plug needs to
be replaced by a new one, the old plug
will need to be cut off and an
appropriate plug fitted. The fuse carrier
and the fuse should be removed from
the old plug and disposed of.
The plug cut from the cable should then
be disposed of and on no account be
inserted into any socket elsewhere in
the house (electric shock hazard).
The fuse cover must be refitted when
changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover
is lost, the plug must not be used until a
suitable replacement is obtained. The
colour of the correct replacement cover
is that of the coloured insert in the base
of the plug, or the colour that is
embossed in words on the base of the
plug (as applicable to the design of
plug fitted).
Replacement fuses should be ASTA
approved to BS 1362 and have the
correct rating. Replacement fuses and
fuse covers may be purchased from
your local electrical supplier or Service
agent.
