Important Precautions and Safety Information
When using this product, these basic safety precautions should always be followed
to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons:

1

Read and understand all instructions.

2

Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.

3

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product and in the literature
accompanying the product.

4

If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information, heed the
safety information. You may have misunderstood the operating instruction. If
you cannot resolve the conflict, contact your sales or service representative for
assistance.

5

Unplug the product from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth for
cleaning.

6

Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. It may fall,
causing serious damage.

7

Your product should never be placed on, near, or over a radiator, heater, air
conditioner, or ventilation duct.

8

Do not allow anything to rest on the power. Do not locate your product where
the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.

9

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish
performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

10 Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone, or PC interface cords.
11 Never push objects of any kind into the product through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of fire or
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the product.

12 Your product may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the document for
the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type product). In this case,
replace the cover after placing document on the scan glass, by holding and
moving it down slowly until it seats on its location.

13 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the product. Take it to a
qualified service technician when repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect
reassembly could cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.

14 Unplug the product from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet, and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When any part of the power cord, plug, or connecting cable is damaged or
frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the product.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate properly after instructions have been followed.
• If the product has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
• If the product exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.

15 Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may require extensive
work by a qualified service technician to restore the product to normal
operation.

16 Avoid using this product during a lightning storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning. If possible, unplug the AC power and telephone
cord for the duration of the lightning storm.

Read this chapter to learn how to select and load print media
and how to use the print settings.
The topics included in this chapter are:
• Paper Selection
• Loading Speciality Paper
• Printing a Document
• Printer Settings
• Using the Printer Control Program

Paper Selection
One of the most important things you can do to assure the
best possible printing performance of your product is to
select the correct paper. Your product produces letter quality
print on most plain bond paper, including cotton bond and
photocopying paper; it does not require special ink jet paper.
However, the print quality varies with different paper types.
Be sure to test a type of paper before you purchase a large
quantity.
Your printer supports the following types of paper. Select the
right paper.
• Plain Paper
The product supports paper sizes of letter, legal, and A4 in
portrait orientation. You can use regular copier paper,
cotton bond papers, and typical letterhead. Always use
paper without curls, folds, staples, or damaged edges.
• Coated paper
Paper developed for high quality printing with minimal or
no smearing or running when in contact with water or
damp surfaces.
• Glossy/Photo Paper
A high gloss, thicker paper that produces the look and feel
of a photograph. Use this paper to produce photo-realistic
prints from your printer.
• Transparency
Your transparencies should be products designed for use in
Ink Jet products, with excellent contrast, sharpness, and
colour quality. The transparency is placed in the product
with the image side up.
• Iron-on Transfer
Use inkjet T-shirt transfers to create and personalize Tshirts, sweatshirts, aprons, tablecloths, napkins, tote
bags, and anything else your imagination allows! Use on
any cotton or cotton/poly blend fabric. Your image is
printed in mirror image so when you iron it onto the Tshirt, the image is viewed correctly.
• Greeting Card Stock
You can create greeting cards, business cards, invitations,
announcements, and more.
2.2

PRINT

NOTE: When you print on different papers, you have to set the
appropriate paper type in your application. See page 2.10.

2

Guidelines for Special Media
Be sure to read any instructions that come with your special
paper. These instructions provide important information
regarding how to achieve the highest print quality with these
papers.
• It is recommended that you feed special paper types one
sheet at a time.
• For transparencies and glossy photo paper, follow these
guidelines:
- Let the printed sheets dry completely before handling or
storing them.
- When a printed sheet has dried completely, cover the
printed side with a sheet of plain (not coated) paper
before storing it, this is recommended even if you place
the sheets in a clear file or plastic holder.
- Do not leave the film in the paper output tray for long
periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on the film
resulting in spotty printing.
- To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle
transparency film and coated paper carefully.
- To avoid fading, do not expose the printed film to
prolonged sunlight.
PRINT

2.3

• Store unused media flat. Do not remove paper from its
protective packaging until you are ready to use it.
• Store unused media at temperatures between 59 and 86 oF
(15 to 30 oC). The relative humidity should be between
10% and 70%.
• If the print density of your page is very high, light paper
stock may curl slightly due to the large amount of ink. If
you need to print dense graphics, try printing on heavier
stock.
• Do not use thicker paper than meets the specifications for
this product. Printing with a paper that is thick enough to
come in contact with the print head nozzles may damage
the cartridge.

Loading Speciality Paper
Follow these guidelines when loading speciality paper:
Load up to:
100 sheets of 20lb
plain paper

And make sure:
•The print side is facing you.
•The paper is against the right side of the paper support.
•The paper guides rest against the edge of the paper.

10 envelopes

•The print side is facing you.
•The envelopes are loaded
vertically against the right
side of the paper support.
•The stamp location is in the
upper left corner.
•The paper guides rest against the edge of the envelopes.

10 greeting cards,
index cards,
postcards, or
photo cards

•The print side is facing you.
•The cards are loaded vertically against the right side of
the paper support.
•The paper guides rest against the edge of the cards.

25 iron-on
transfers

•You follow the loading instructions on the iron-on
packaging.
•The print side (blank side) is facing you.
•The paper guides rest against the edge of the iron-on
transfers.

Paper Guidelines
• When loading paper, envelopes, or other special media, keep
these guidelines in mind:
• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper
can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
• Use only high quality inkjet or copier grade paper. Avoid paper
with embossed lettering, perforations, or texture that is too
smooth or too rough.
• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. Place
cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place
heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or
unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture, or other conditions
that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
• During storage, moisture-proof wrap (any plastic container or
bag) should be used to prevent dust and moisture from
contaminating your paper.
• Always use paper and other media that conform with those
listed under “Paper Specification” on page 8.5.

PRINT

• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, well
creased folds.
• DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and/or snaps.
• DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated linings, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.
• DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.

Printing a Document
This procedure describes the general steps required for
printing from various Windows applications. The exact steps
for printing a document may vary depending on the
application program you are using. Refer to your software
application’s documentation for the exact printing procedure.
The following steps describe the typical process to print from
a Windows environment:

your computer. For details, see “Installing Samsung
Software” on page 1.21.

3

Start the program you are using to create the
document, and create or open the document you want
to print.

4

Choose Print or Print Setup from the File menu.
Make sure that Samsung SF-430 Series is selected
as your default printer. Click Properties or Setup if
you want to make any adjustments that are appropriate
for printing your document. (For details, see “Printer
Settings” on page 2.8.)

SCAN

Scanning with the Samsung SF-430 lets you turn pictures
and text into digital files on your computer. Then you can fax
or e-mail the files, display them on your web site, or use
them to create projects that you can print out using
Samsung SmarThru software which comes with the product.
This chapter includes:

• Scanning Basics
• Starting Scan from the Front Panel
• The Scanning Process with TWAIN-enabled
Software

Scanning Basics
Your SF-430 offers three ways to start scanning. These
include:
• From the Samsung SmarThru software: Launch Samsung
SmarThru and open the Scan Wizard to start scanning.
Please refer to the SmarThru User’s Guide.
• From the front panel on your product: Use the Scan To
button on the front panel to initiate scanning. The
SmarThru system launches automatically on your PC and
the Scan Wizard window opens on the desktop window.
• From TWAIN-compliant software: You can use other
software including Adobe PhotoDeluxe and Adobe
Photoshop.
NOTES:
• To scan with your product, you must install the MFP driver.
• Scanning is done through the same LPT or USB port that is
currently assigned for your printer port.

Starting Scan from the Front Panel
You can quickly start scanning from the front panel on your
product. The Samsung SmarThru program automatically
launches and allows you to select the desired scan service.
Take the following steps:

1

Make sure that your computer and SF-430 are turned
on. You will see the scan monitor icon on the taskbar at
the bottom right corner of the desktop window unless
you disable or have turned it off.

Adjusting Document Settings
When setting typical text based documents, the default
document settings produce good results.
However, if you send documents that are of poor quality, or
contain photographs, you can adjust the following features to
ensure a higher quality.

Resolution
Resolution is a measure of the fineness of clarity of a
printout. Low resolution may cause text and graphics to have
a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide
smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a
better match to traditional typeface designs.
Press Resolution on the front panel to increase resolution.
By pressing Resolution repeatedly or using the Scroll
buttons ( or ), you can choose between STANDARD,
FINE, and SUPERFINE. Press Enter to save the selection.
The document types recommended for quality settings are
described below.
• Standard works well for normal handwritten typed, or
printed documents.
• Fine is good for documents containing a lot of detail.
• Superfine works well for documents containing extremely
fine detail. Superfine works only if the receiving machine
also has the SUPERFINE feature.

NOTES:
• Superfine resolution is not available to store the document.
Superfine documents will be stored to memory with Fine
mode for the advanced faxing like delayed transmission. And
for a normal fax, the pages will be sent one by one as soon as
they are scanned, even though Send From Memory is set to
ON.
• If the product is set to Superfine resolution and the receiving
fax machine does not support Superfine resolution, your
product will transmit using the highest resolution mode
supported by the remote fax machine.

Contrast
Contrast is the difference in brightness between the lightest
and darkest parts of a printed document. You can adjust the
contrast your product will use to send faxes. Adjust according
to how light or dark your document is.
Press Contrast on the front panel to compensate for the
brightness or darkness of your faxed document. By pressing
Contrast repeatedly or using the Scroll buttons ( or )
after loading a document, you can choose between LIGHTEN,
PHOTO, DARKEN, or NORMAL. Press Enter to save the
selection.
• Lighten works well with dark print.
• Photo is used when faxing photographs or other
documents containing shades of grey.

NOTE: The Photo setting is only enabled when sending a black
and white fax. If you select the Photo setting and try to fax
documents with colour images, the contrast will be set to
‘NORMAL’ automatically.
• Darken works well with light print or faint pencil markings.
The light image and text on the original document will be
darker on the printed page.
• Normal works well with standard typed or printed
documents.

Receiving a Fax
About Reception Modes
Your product has four reception modes:
• In FAX mode, the product answers an incoming call and
immediately goes into receive mode.
• In AUTO mode, the product answers an incoming call
expecting to receive a fax. If the product does not sense a
fax signal, it will continue to sound the ringing tone to tell
you it is a phone call. If you do not lift the handset during
the ringing, the product will switch to automatic fax
reception mode.
• In ANS/FAX mode, an answering machine answers an
incoming call, and the caller can leave a message on the
answering machine. If your product senses a fax tone on
the line, the call automatically switches to the fax machine.

NOTE: To use the ANS/FAX mode, attach an answering
machine to the EXT jack on the back of your product (see page
1.9).
• In TEL mode, the automatic fax reception is turned off. You
can receive a fax by picking up the handset and pressing
Start FAX Black or Start FAX Color on the front panel
of your SF-430 series product.
• In DRPD mode, you can receive a call using the Distinctive
Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature. “Distinctive Ring” is
a telephone company service which enables a user to use a
single telephone line to answer several different telephone
numbers. This mode is displayed when you have set up the
distinctive ring pattern. For details on this feature, see page
5.41.

5.14

FAX

The current reception mode is displayed when the product is
in Standby mode.

Current
reception mode

If you seldom use the fax line for voice conversations, set
your product to receive a fax automatically by selecting FAX
mode.

NOTE: While the product is printing a received document,
scanning for fax or copy job is not possible. After the current
print job is completed, try the job.

Loading Paper for Receiving Faxes
The instructions for loading paper in the paper input tray are
the same whether you are printing, faxing, or copying,
except that faxes can only be printed on letter-, A4-, or legalsized paper. See “Loading Paper” on page 1.11 for
instructions.
After loading paper for receiving faxes, set the paper size to
the size of paper you normally load in the paper bin. Your
product uses this setting when printing reports and
determining auto reduction for incoming faxes. See page
5.39 to set the paper size.

NOTE: The FAX PAPER SIZE setting does not affect the printing
from PC. If you are loading special-sized media for your current
print job, do not change this setting. After you have finished
printing, reload the original paper for fax printing.

Your product is preset to FAX mode at the factory. If you have
changed the receive mode, take the following steps to
receive faxes automatically:

1

Press Receive Mode on the front panel repeatedly
until you see “FAX”. Then, press Enter.

2

When you receive a call, the product answers the call on
a specified number of rings and receives a fax
automatically. To change the number of rings, see “Fax
Setup Options” on page 5.38.

To adjust the ringer volume, see “Setting Sounds” on page
1.41.

Receiving in AUTO Mode
1

Press Receive Mode on the front panel repeatedly
until you see “AUTO”. Then, press Enter.

2

When you get a call, the product answers it.
If a fax is being sent, the product goes into reception
mode.
If the product does not detect a fax signal, it will
continue ringing to tell you it is a phone call. You should
pick up the handset to answer the call, or it will switch
to automatic reception mode.

5.16

FAX

Receiving Automatically in ANS/
FAX Mode
For this mode, you must attach an answering machine to the
EXT jack on the back of your product (see page 1.9).

1

Press Receive Mode on the front panel repeatedly
until you see “ANS/FAX”. Then, press Enter.

2

When you receive a call, the answering machine will
answer.
If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine
stores the message as it would normally. If your product
hears a fax tone on the line, it automatically starts to
receive the fax.

NOTES:
• If you have set your product to ANS/FAX mode and your
answering machine is switched off, or no answering machine
is connected to your product, your product will automatically
go into FAX mode after predefined rings. The ring count may
vary depending on your country.
• If your answering machine has a ‘user-selectable ring
counter’, set the product to answer incoming calls within 1
ring.
• If you are in TEL mode (manual reception) when the
answering machine is connected to your product, you must
switch off the answering machine, or the outgoing message
from the answering machine will interrupt your phone
conversation.

Receiving Manually in TEL Mode
You can answer calls using the handset, and start the product
to receive a fax.

1

Press Receive Mode on the front panel repeatedly
until you see “TEL”. Then, press Enter.

2

When the telephone rings, pick up the handset and
answer it.

3

If you hear a fax tone, or if the person on the other end
asks you to receive a document, press Start FAX
Black or Start FAX Color.

4

Replace the handset. The product begins receiving and
returns to Standby mode when the reception is
complete.

Receiving Manually Using an
Extension Telephone
This features works best when you are using an extension
telephone connected to the EXT jack on back of your product
(see page 1.9). You can receive a fax from someone you are
talking to on the extension telephone without having to go to
the fax machine.
When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax
tones, press the keys “*9*” (star nine star) on the extension
telephone.
The product receives the document.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax
tone from the remote machine, try pressing “*9*” once
again.
“*9*” is the remote receive start code preset at the factory.
The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but you can change
the middle number to whatever you choose. For more
information, see page 5.41.

FAX

Receiving Using DRPD Feature
You can not set ‘DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection)’ as
the receive mode using the Receive Mode button on the
front panel if you have not set up your product for use with
the DRPD service and turned on the feature (see page 5.41).
When the receive mode is set to “DRPD,” if someone calls
using the number assigned for telephone communication,
your product rings in the pattern you registered for voice
calls. When you hear this pattern, simply pick up the handset
of the telephone connected to your product and talk.
When someone sends a fax using the number assigned for
fax communication, your product receives the fax
automatically.
You can select the other receive mode using Receive Mode
button on the operation panel to temporarily disable the
DRPD service.

5

Receiving in Colour
Your product has been set to receive faxes in colour from fax
machines with colour capability. When receiving a fax, your
product detects if the incoming fax is in colour or black and
white, and prints the fax accordingly.

Receiving Fax in Memory
Since your product is a multitasking device, it can receive
faxes while you are making copies or printing. If you receive
a fax while you are copying or printing, your product stores
the incoming fax in memory. Then, as soon as you finish
copying or printing, the product automatically prints the fax.

FAX

5.19

Forwarding Received Faxes
You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to
another fax number during a specified time period. When the
fax arrives at your product, it is stored in memory. Then, your
product dials the fax number you have specified and sends
the fax.
If it cannot forward a fax after repeated attempts because of
an error, such as the number being busy and redials failing,
your product will print a message confirmation report
showing the result of the transmission. If it runs out of
memory while receiving a fax, it will terminate the incoming
fax and only forward the partial pages already stored in
memory.
You can also select the fax forwarding option which allows
you to print the fax on your product if fax forwarding is
completed without an error.
To use fax forwarding, take the following steps:

1

Press FAX Forward.

• DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection) MODE :
‘Distinctive Ring’ is a telephone company service which
enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer
several different telephone numbers. The particular
number someone uses to call you on is identified by
different ringing patterns, which consist of various
combinations of long and short ringing sounds. This feature
is often used by answering services who answer telephones
for many different clients and need to know which number
someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your
product can ‘learn’ the ring pattern you designate to be
answered by the SF-430 product. Unless you change it, this
ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and answered
as a FAX call, and all other ringing patterns will be
forwarded to the extension telephone or answering product
plugged into the EXT jack. You can easily suspend or
change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any time.

telephone line by the telephone company. To setup
Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another
telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial
your fax number from outside.
Select ON to turn this mode on.
Select OFF to turn this mode off.

The LCD displays “WAITING RING”. Call your fax number
from another telephone. When the product completes
‘learning’, the LCD displays “END DRPD SETUP”.
With the DRPD feature active, “DRPD MODE” appears in the
display and the previously set reception mode is ignored. If
you turn DRPD off, the product returns to the previously set
reception mode.

NOTES:
• DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number,
or connect the product to another telephone line.
• After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to
verify that the product answers with a fax tone, then have a
call placed to a different number assigned to that same line to
be sure the call is forwarded to the extension telephone or
answering product plugged into the EXT jack.

• ECM MODE (Error Correction Mode) : This mode
compensates for poor line quality and ensures accurate,
error-free transmission with any other ECM-equipped
facsimile machine. If the line quality is poor, transmission
time may be increased when ECM is enabled.
Select ON to turn the Error Correction mode on.
Select OFF to turn this Error Correction mode off.
• AUTO JOURNAL : A journal shows specific information
concerning transmission or reception activities, the time
and dates of up to 40 most recent transmissions or

MAINTENANCE

This chapter provides suggestions for high-quality and
economical printing and information for maintaining the
print cartridges and the product.
This chapter includes:
• Maintaining Print Cartridges
• Viewing Ink Levels
• Cleaning the Print Cartridges
• Replacing the Print Cartridges
• Aligning the Print Cartridges
• Clearing Memory
• Adjusting Shading
• Setting the Product to be Checked by Phone
• Cleaning the Document Scanner

Maintaining Print Cartridges
To get the maximum benefit from your print cartridges:
• Do not remove a print cartridge from its packaging until you
are ready to install it.
• Do not refill the print cartridges. The warranty does not
cover damage caused by using refilled cartridges.
• Store the print cartridges in the same environment as your
equipment.
• Do not remove a print cartridge from the product except to
replace, or clean. Immediately replace the print cartridge
or store in the storage unit. The print cartridge will not print
correctly if removed from your product and left exposed for
an extended period of time.
• Your product will not print with only one print cartridge
installed. If you do not have a new replacement for the
empty print cartridge, leave the empty cartridge in the
cartridge holder of the product.
• Do not swap the colour cartridge with the black cartridge.
The colour cartridge should be installed in the Left carrier
and the black cartridge should be installed in the Right
carrier.
• If you have an opened ink cartridge you are not currently
using and do not have an available print cartridge storage
unit, store it in an airtight plastic bag. Do not leave it
exposed to the air for an extended period; this promotes
drying out and clogging of the print nozzles.

Cleaning the Print Cartridges
Cleaning your print cartridges can improve the quality of
printing. If your printed page is missing lines or dots or
contains ink streaks, clean the print cartridges as described
in this section.
There are two methods to clean the print cartridges:
• Printing a head cleaning page, which can be done from the
front panel of the SF-430 or from the Control Program on
your computer screen.
• Clean the print cartridge nozzles.
NOTE: Do not clean the print cartridges unnecessarily, as this
wastes ink and shortens the life of the print cartridge.

Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams
By carefully selecting print materials and loading them
properly, you should be able to avoid most paper jams. If
jams do occur, follow the steps outlined in “Clearing Jams” on
page 7.2. If jams occur frequently, make sure that you are
following these preventative tips:
• Follow the procedures in “Loading Paper” on page 1.11 to
load paper properly. Make sure that the adjustable guides
are positioned correctly.
• Do not overload the paper. Up to 100 sheets can be loaded
in the paper bin at a time.
• Envelopes with self-stick adhesives may cause wrinkling,
creasing, or even jams and may even damage your
product.
• Fan stacks of labels or transparencies before loading them
into the paper bin. If jams occur, try feeding one sheet at a
time.
• Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or highly curled
paper.
• Do not mix paper sizes in the paper bin.
• Use only recommended print media.
• Make sure that the recommended print side is facing up
when loading it in the paper bin.
• Keep print media stored in a suitable environment.

Scanning Problems
Problem
The product does not
scan.

Possible Cause and Remedy
• Make sure you place the document to be scanned
face down on the document glass.
• There may not be enough available memory to
hold the document you want to scan. Try the PreScan function to see if that works. Try lowering the
scan resolution rate.
• The USB or parallel cable is not connected properly.
• The USB or parallel cable is defective. Swap the
cable with a known good cable. If necessary,
replace the cable.
• If using a parallel cable, ensure that it is compliant
with the IEEE 1284 standard.
• The scanner is configured incorrectly. Check scan
setting in the SmarThru Configuration or the
application you want to use to make certain that
the scanner job is being sent to the correct port
(for example, LPT1).

The unit scans very
slowly.

• Check if the product is printing received data. Scan
the document after the current job is completed.
• Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.
• Communication speed becomes slow in scan mode
because of the large amount of memory required
to analyse and reproduce the scanned image. Set
your computer to ECP printer mode through BIOS
setting. It will help to increase the speed. For
details on how to set BIOS, refer to your PC
documentation.

The following message
appears on the

Replacing the Fitted Plug (UK)
Important
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug
and has a 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit
the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have
lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you have another fuse cover. Please
contact the people from you purchased the machine.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable.
However, some buildings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13 amp plug
sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded
plug.
Warning
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug it
into a socket.

Important warning: You must earth this machine
The wires in the mains lead have the following colour code:
• Green and Yellow: Earth
• Blue:

Neutral

• Brown:

Live

If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colours marked in your plug, do
the following:
You must connect the green and yellow wire to the pin marked by the letter ‘E’,
or by the safety ‘Earth symbol’ or coloured green and yellow or green.
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘N’ or
coloured black.
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘L’
or coloured red.
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.
