Fuse repla ement
If the mains lead of this appliance is fitted with a BS 1363A
13 amp fused plug, to change a fuse in this type of plug
use an A.S.T.A. approved fuse to BS 1362 type and
proceed as follows:
1. Remove the fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit replacement 13A fuse into fuse cover.
3. Refit both into plug.
Important: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing
a fuse and if the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be
used until a correct replacement is fitted.
Correct replacement is identified by the colour insert or the
colour embossed in words on the base of the plug.
Replacement fuse covers are available from your local
electrical store.
Conne tion to a rewireable plug
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlet, then it
should be cut off and disposed of in order to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A
socket elsewhere. A suitable alternative plug should then
be fitted to the cable. The wires in this mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following code;
BLU - neutral (“N”)
BROWN - live (“L”)
GR N AND Y LLOW - earth (“ ”)
1. The GR N AND Y LLOW wire must be connected to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter “ ”
or by the arth symbol or coloured green or green and
