type they will not accept the plug connected to this heater,
therefore cut off the plug. When cut off this plug can constitute
a shock hazard if inserted into a socket outlet. It must therefore
be disposed of safely.
Before wiring the appropriate plug please note that the wires in this
mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code.

plug are unmarked or you are in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.

comply with the relevant safety standards, certain types
of carpets could become discoloured by the temperatures

we recommend that you contact the carpet manufacturer
for guidance. Alternatively, either stand the heater on a
suitable base to shield the carpet or wall mount it.
