Power supply
The washing machine is supplied with a lead and
electrical plug for connection to a 230 V, 13 A earthed
wall socket. Before any work is carried out on the
washing machine, it must be isolated from the electric
mains supply, for example by removing the plug
from the wall socket.
Permanent electrical installation must be
carried out by an authorised electrician or
competent person.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should
this safety measure not be observed.
The appliance should not be connected to the
electrical supply by means of an extension cable.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not
suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and
the appropriate plug fitted.
Remove the fuse from the cut off plug.
The cut off plug should then be disposed of to prevent
the hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged
into a 13 amp socket in another part of your home.
Important
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the
mains lead of your appliance may not correspond
with the markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the
terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter
«E» or the earth symbol or coloured green and
yellow.
Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter «N» or coloured
black.
Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter «L» or coloured
red.
The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a fuse.
For replacement, use a 13 amp BSI362 fuse.
Only ASTA or BSI approved fuses should be used.
