IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Replacing the fuse in the mains plug
This appliance is fitted with a non-rewireable 10 Amp mains plug. The plug contains
a 10 Amp fuse. If the fuse has blown it can be replaced as follows:
a) Pull out the red fuse cover/carrier.
b) Remove and dispose of the blown fuse.
c) Fit a new 10 Amp BS1362 approved fuse into the carrier and push the
carrier back into the plug.
Always ensure the fuse cover is fitted. If the fuse cover is missing do not use the
plug. Contact Linn to obtain a replacement fuse cover. Fuses are for fire protection
and do not protect against electric shock.
Mains plug replacement
Should your mains plug need replacing and you are competent to do this proceed as
follows. If you are in doubt contact your Linn retailer or a competent electrician.
a) Disconnect the plug from the mains supply.
b) Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely. A plug with bared conductors is
dangerous if engaged in a live socket.
c) Only fit a 10 Amp BS1363A approved plug with a 10 Amp fuse.
d) The cable wire colours or a letter will be marked at the connection points of
most quality plugs. Attach the wires securely to their respective points. The
Brown wire must go to the Live pin, the Blue wire must go to the Neutral pin,
and the Green/Yellow wire must go to the Ear th pin.
e) Before replacing the plug top ensure that the cable restraint is holding the
outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the wires are correctly connected.
