Can I use an overseas disposer manual for my UK appliance?

Use the instructions for the exact model and market. A manual with a familiar product name may describe different electrical arrangements, accessories, controls or warranty terms in another country.

What the observation tells you

Do not copy plug, fuse, wiring or reset advice from a foreign-market video into your installation. Similar-looking housings do not establish that internal arrangements are identical. Manufacturer support can help locate the correct document from the full rating reference.

A useful next step

Keep the approved manual with the appliance records and provide it when discussing an unusual accessory. If the product's market identity is uncertain, seek confirmation before making any change or ordering parts.

Manuals and supporting guidance

Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
