Regulation 5 Condition of appliances when in normal use
All information necessary for the safe installation, adjustment, maintenance and operation of an appliance shall be given by markings on the appliance itself or, where that is not practicable, in a document or documents accompanying the appliance.
Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (1) above–
an appliance shall bear instructions, set out in legible and durable characters and displayed either upon the facia of the appliance or on the tap handles, indicating which tap controls which burner and the closed, open and, if applicable, reduced rate positions for each tap;
in the case of an appliance incorporating a shut-down lid which is not so constructed that the hot-plate burners are automatically shut off when the lid is shut down, the appliance shall bear a warning, set out in legible and durable characters under the lid, that it is dangerous to close the lid without extinguishing the hot-plate burners.
The name of, and sufficient particulars to identify, the manufacturer and, in the case of an appliance imported into the United Kingdom, the importer of an appliance shall be indelibly marked on the appliance, or on a durable label securely fixed to the appliance with its entire surface in contact with it, in a position where the particulars can be easily read when the appliance is installed, adjusted, maintained or in operation.
It shall not be a sufficient compliance with this regulation to give information in a language other than English.
