Factory fitted moulded mains plug
1.The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use only
a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.
2.The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the fuse in
the moulded plug.
3.Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the
plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home
or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain
an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adapter,
or consult your dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse
and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible
shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains
supply.
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Blue
: Neutral
Brown
: Live
Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a three-
pin plug.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Please read all of the safety and operating instructions before
operating this appliance. Adhere to all warnings on the appliance
and in the instruction manual. Follow all the safety and operating
instructions. These safety and operating instructions should be
retained for future reference.
1. Power sources ­ The appliance should be connected to a
power supply only of the type described in the instruction
manual or as marked on the appliance. If you are not sure of
the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance
dealer or local power company. For appliances intended to
operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the
instruction manual.
2. Power-cord protection ­ Power-supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, pay
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.
3.
CAUTION ­ Polarization ­ This appliance may
be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a
plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit
into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
4. Ventilation ­ Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided
for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance
and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must
not be blocked or covered. The appliance should be situated so
that its location or position does not interfere with its proper
ventilation.
To maintain good ventilation, do not put records or a table-cloth
on the appliance. Place the appliance at least 10 cm away from
the walls.
Do not use the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface
that may block the ventilation openings. This appliance should
not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's
instructions have been adhered to.
5. Water and moisture ­ The appliance should not be
used near water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl,
kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool, etc.
Never pull or stretch the cord.
6. Temperature ­ The appliance may not function properly
if used at extremely low, or freezing temperatures. The
ideal ambient temperature is above +5°C (41°F).
7. Heat ­ The appliance should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
8. Electric shock ­ Care should be taken so that objects do
not fall and liquid is not spilled into the enclosure
through openings. If a metal objects, such as a hair pin
or a needle, comes into contact with the inside of this
appliance, a dangerous electric shock may result. For
families with children, never permit children to put
anything, especially metal, inside this appliance.
9. Enclosure removal ­ Never remove the enclosure. If
the internal parts are touched accidentally, a serious
electric shock might occur.
10.Magnetic fields ­ Keep the appliance away from sources
of magnetic fields such as TV sets, speaker systems,
radios, motorized toys or magnetized objects.
11.Cleaning ­ Unplug this appliance from the wall outlet
before cleaning. Do not use volatile solvents such as
alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean
the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.
12.Accessories ­ Do not place this appliance on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.
Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's
instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart
combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.

13.Lightning ­ For added protection for this appliance during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line
surges.
14.Abnormal smell ­ If an abnormal smell or smoke is
detected, immediately turn the power OFF and unplug
the appliance from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or
nearest service center.
15.Damage requiring service ­ The appliance should be
serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the
appliance.
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain or water.
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally by
following the instruction manual. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the instruction manual as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the appliance to its normal operation.
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure
damaged.
F. The appliance exhibits a marked change in performance.
16.Servicing ­ The user should not attempt to service the
appliance beyond that described in the instruction
manual. All other servicing should be referred to qualified
service personnel.
17.Outdoor antenna grounding ­ If an outside antenna is
connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna system
is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of
the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides
information with respect to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements
for the grounding electrode. See Figure.
18.Power lines ­ An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines
or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme
care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines
or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
19.AC outlets ­ Do not connect other audio equipment
with a power consumption larger than that specified to
the AC outlet on the rear panel. Never connect other
electrical appliances, such as an iron or toaster, to it to
prevent fire or electric shock.
20. Overloading ­ Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords,
or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock.
21. Attachment ­ Do not use attachments not recommended by
the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
22. Replacement parts ­ When replacement parts are required,
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics
as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
23. Safety check ­ Upon completion of any service or repairs to
this appliance, ask the service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the appliance is in proper operating
condition.
