Mains plug  
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.  
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:  
a
b
Remove fuse cover and fuse.  
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp,  
A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.  
c
Refit the fuse cover.  
How to connect a plug  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following  
code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L).  
As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings  
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:  
Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or  
coloured black.  
Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or  
coloured red.  
Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the  
plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and  
yellow).  
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord  
grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over  
the two wires.
