Electrical connection

This heater must be used on an A.C.~ supply only and the voltage marked on the heater must correspond to the supply voltage. This heater is fitted with a plug incorporating a 10 amp fuse. When replacing the fuse, a 10 amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362 must be used.

If the plug is not suitable for the socket outlets in your home, the plug must be cut off and an appropriate one fitted. A plug cut off from a mains lead will give a shock hazard if inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the house. To avoid this, it should be disposed of immediately.

NOTE: The fuse cover of a non-rewirable plug must be refitted when changing the fuse. Should the cover become lost, the plug must not be used until the correct replacement fuse cover is obtained from your supplier.

IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

BLUE: NEUTRAL
BROWN: LIVE

Connect the BROWN wire to the terminal marked ‘L’ or coloured RED. Connect the BLUE wire to the terminal marked ‘N’ or coloured BLACK. Note: ‘L’ or ‘N’ must not be connected to the EARTH terminal marked ‘E’ or ‘   ’ or coloured GREEN or GREEN AND YELLOW.
