As long as the yellow goes to L (Normally marked Com but L on yours) the red and blue can be swapped without a problem.

Other switch either L1 or L2 is not used if switch works wrong way around swap wire between L1 and L2 the other one will go to L.

Can't read the markings on the old switch, but the bottom terminal (where the yellow is) is often referred to as the common - which is L on your new switch.

On your new switch, where one side has just one red and one black, use L and L1, either way round. Leave L2 empty.

On the other side of the new switch, put yellow in L. Put the red in either L1 or L2, and the blue in the remaining terminal.

Be sure to provide an earth wire to the earth terminal.

There were earth conductors in the cables?
