ELECTRICAL SUPPLY INSTRUCTIONS
Connecting to your electrical supply
Permanently connected to the cleaner is a mains supply (2-core)
cable fitted with a non-rewirable plug incorporating a 13A fuse. In the
event of the fuse requiring replacement the fuse cover should be
removed using a small screwdriver. The old fuse MUST be replaced
by a 13A ASTA approved BS1362 fuse and the fuse cover must be
replaced before the plus is used again. In the event of loss of the
fuse cover, replacements can be obtained from your Electrolux
dealer or Electricity Board and must be of the same colour as
indicated by the coloured insert on the base plug.
If difficulty is experienced in obtaining a replacement, contact your
nearest Electrolux Service Centre. (Please see the separate
Electrolux Service Organisation leaflet).
In no circumstances must the plug be used without
a correct fuse cover fitted.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for your
socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.
Remove the fuse from the cut off plug. The cut off plug should then
be disposed of to prevent hazard of shocks in case it should be
plugged into a 13 Amp socket in another part of your home.
The wires in the mains cable of this appliance are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral.
Brown: Live.
As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of this appliance may
not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal
which marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is
coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked
the letter L or coloured red.
If using a three-pin plug, do not make any connection to the terminal
marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or
green-and-yellow. [This cleaner is double insulated and no earth-
connection is necessary.]
It is in your interest to ensure that the plug is correctly attached to
the mains cable. In case of doubt, have it done by a qualified
electrician, as Electrolux cannot regard the repair of faults on the plug
connection as a service that can be given free of charge under the
terms of guarantee.
As a general guide to fitting any plug
•
Ensure the lengths of wire inside the plug are prepared correctly.
•
Connection should be firmly made after all conductor stands are
entered into the terminal posts.
•
When preparing the cable ends take care not to damage the
outer seal, or insulation surrounding the inner conductors.
•
Tighten all screws.
•
Replace the top cover of the plug and secure.
