10 AWG > PLUG HOW TO CONNECT THE CORD TO A U.K. PLUG: IMPORTANT The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue Neutral Brown Live Yellow/Green Earth Please read the in- structions given below before con- necting the cord to a plug. If in doubt plea- se consult a qualified electrician. As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured mar- kings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wires that is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or colou- red Red. The wire that is coloured Blue must be con- nected to the terminal wich is marked with the letter N or coloured Black. Safety points for rewireable or moulded plug: The mains lead of this appliance may be already fitted with a BS1363 13A plug. - If your socket outlet is not suitable for the plug, then the plug must be removed (cut off if it is a moulded on plug), the exible cord insulation should be stripped back as appropriate and a suitable 3 pin plug fitted.

• WARNING: Dispose of a plug that has been cut from the power supply cord, as such a plug is hazardous if inserted in a live 13A socket outlet elsewhere in the house. - Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTA marked fuse, approved to BS1362, of the same rating must be used. - Always replace the fuse cover after fitting a fuse. The plug must NOT be used if the cover is omitted or lost until a replacement is obtained. - Make certain that only the correct fuse cover is used and fitted. - For plugs with detachable fuse cover the replacement must be the same as the colour insert in the base of the plug, or as directed by the embossed wording on the base of the plug. - If the detachable fuse cover is lost a replacement may be purchased from a Service Centre.
