Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
If this machine is fitted with a non-rewi-
reable plug, the following information
applies:
If the socket outlets are not suitable for
the plug supplied with the product, it
must be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted.
The plug cut from the flexible cord should
be disposed of and on no account be in-
serted 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 sui-
table 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 ap-
proved to BS 1362 and have the cor-
rect rating. Replacement fuse covers
may be purchased from your local
electrical supplier or Service agent.
