I have been asked to connect up a single phase motor in an extractor fan but not sure of connections and don't have data sheet

The fan is a Nicota DDM 9/7

A six core cable comes out
Brown and white joined to one connector
Brown - capacitor linked to this
Black - capacitor linked to this
Brown
Earth

Would I be right in saying the live should go to the connector with brown and white and the neutral to the other brown?

(I am a spark to trade but this isn't what I am use to dealing with so unsure
 
The colours don't always follow a standard (apart from green/yellow), look for indication of the windings such as U1, U2, Z1, Z2 if it's single phase, determine required rotation direction then work out your wiring scheme from there.
