Product Information

Full details

This Trendi Switch cooker switch and plug socket in Ocean Blue is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish and functional electrical component. Its key benefit is the combination of a high-amp cooker switch with an integrated plug socket, all housed within a modern, screwless, fireproof ABS plastic design. A potential caveat is its specific 45-amp rating, which must match the appliance requirements. It offers a sleek, fade-resistant finish and easy installation, making it a practical upgrade for kitchens.

Troubleshooting

Switch or socket not working

Verify that the power is switched on at the main fuse box. Check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.

Neon light not illuminating

Ensure the main power is on. Check the neon indicator's connection within the switch. If it remains off, the neon bulb may need replacement, or there might be a wiring fault.

Faceplate is difficult to remove or attach

Ensure you are using the correct technique for the screwless mechanism. If attaching, align the plate carefully and apply gentle, even pressure. If removing, use a small, flat-head screwdriver in the designated slot to gently lever it off. Avoid excessive force.

Product arrived damaged

Contact the retailer immediately to report the damage and arrange for a replacement. Check the packaging for signs of mishandling during transit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This unit is designed for straightforward installation, typically replacing an existing cooker switch and socket. Ensure the power is completely isolated at the main fuse box before attempting any electrical work. Remove the old faceplate, connect the wiring to the appropriate terminals on the new Trendi Switch unit according to the wiring diagram, and then carefully clip the new screwless faceplate into place. It is highly recommended that installation is performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with electrical regulations.

Compatibility:

This switch is compatible with standard UK electrical systems and is rated for 45 amps, making it suitable for most domestic electric cookers and ovens. Ensure your appliance's power requirements do not exceed this rating. The dimensions are 146 x 88mm with an installation depth of 25mm.

Care:

To maintain the sleek appearance of the Ocean Blue finish, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plastic and its finish. The screwless design makes cleaning around the edges easy.
