I have lost the instructions that came with the unit.

What is the function of the blue and white wires?

Thanks.

Blue (thick) is the connection to the neutral bar, and
white (thin) is the connection to the earth bar, if it's
the same as ones I've installed in the past.

Also remember to connect the circuit neutral to the RCBO's neutral
connection, and not take it back to the neutral bus bar directly!

Thank you and John.

Obvious really now I think about it, but the white colour threw me. Why
is it not green/yellow?

Probably because it is a functional earth, and not a safety earth (at
least in the normal sense of a circuit protective conductor or
equipotential bonding conductor). Cream is the standard colour for
functional earth wires.
