Electrical supply (Uk & Ireland only)
Before you start ... check the voltage
Before connecting the cleaner to an electrical supply ensure that the
voltage marked on the data plate (on the underside of the cleaner)
is correct for your electrical supply. If it is not, do not use the cleaner
but refer back to your dealer.
Connecting to your electricity 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 plug 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 of the 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 the 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 is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with 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
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 the guarantee.
As a general guide to fitting any plug
•
Ensure the lengths of wire inside the plug are
prepared correctly.
•
Connections should be firmly made after all conductor
strands are entered into the terminal posts.
•
When preparing the cable ends take care not to damage the
outer sheath, or the insulation surrounding the inner
conductors.
•
Tighten all screws.
•
Replace the top cover of the plug and secure.
