Other safety considerations
- Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner

Electrical Requirements
Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with
your house electricity supply which must be A.C. (Alternating Current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with
this appliance, the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed from the mains lead, if severed, must be
destroyed as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a
live socket outlet. Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing, a 3
amp BS1362 fuse must be fitted.
