For Your Safety
To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted
only into a standard three-pin power point which is effectively grounded
through the normal household wiring.
Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-conductor and
be correctly wired to provide connection to ground. Incorrectly wired
extension cords are a major cause of fatalities.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that
the power is grounded and that the installation is completely safe. For
your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the power,
consult a qualified electrician.
Wiring Information (For U.K. only)
Important
If the mains plug supplied with this printer is not suitable for your
socket outlet, remove the plug from the mains cord and fit an
appropriate three pin plug. If the replacement plug is intended to take a
fuse then fit the same rating fuse as the original.
If a moulded plug is severed from the mains cord then it should be
destroyed because a plug with cut wires is dangerous if engaged in a
live socket outlet. Do not leave it where a child might find it!
In the event of replacing the plug fuse, fit a fuse approved by ASTA to
BS1362 with the same rating as the original fuse.
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug with the cover omitted.
WARNING - THIS PRINTER MUST BE EARTHED
The wires in the mains cord are coloured in accordance with the
following code :
GREEN AND YELLOW : EARTH
BLUE : NEUTRAL
BROWN : LIVE
The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this printer may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug.
