IMPORTANT (for U.K. Customers)
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this
equipment. If the plug fitted is not suit-
able for the power points in your home
or the cable is too short to reach a
power point, then obtain an appropriate
safety approved extension lead or con-
sult your dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off,
remove the fuse and dispose of the plug
immediately, to avoid a possible shock
hazard by inadvertent connection to the
mains supply.
If this product is not provided with a
mains plug, or one has to be fitted, then
follow the instructions given below:
IMPORTANT. DO NOT make any con-
nection to the larger terminal which is
marked with the letter E or by the safety
earth symbol ç or coloured GREEN or
GREEN-and-YELLOW.
The wires in the mains lead on this prod-
uct are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
BLUE: NEUTRAL
BROWN: LIVE
As these colours may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug proceed as
follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must
be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter N or coloured
BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN
must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter L or
coloured RED.
When replacing the fuse only a correct-
ly rated approved type should be used
and be sure to re-fit the fuse cover.
IF IN DOUBT — CONSULT A COMPE-
TENT ELECTRICIAN.
