Replacing the mains cord

representative, as special tools and/or parts are
required.
For U.K. only:
Fitting a different plug
This appliance is fitted with a BS 1363 13 Amp.
plug.
Should you need to replace the plug, connect the
wires as follows:
Brown wire to the Live (L) terminal of the new
plug.
Blue wire to the Neutral (N) terminal of the new
plug.
Always fit the same value of fuse as that originally
supplied with your appliance.
Only use BS 1362 approved fuses.
As a guide only: Appliances under 700 W can
have a 3 Amp. fuse (red) and all others should
have a 13 Amp. fuse (brown).
When disposing of an old plug (particularly the
moulded type which has been cut from the mains
cord) always remove the fuse as the plug could
be dangerous if ever inserted in a live socket.
Before cutting the plug off, temporarily tie a knot
in the mains cord to prevent it being inadvertantly
drown into the cordwinder.
After fitting the new plug, untie this knot.
