SAFETY INFORMATION
Mains supply
This equipment is designed to operate from a 220-240 Volt, 50Hz AC mains supply. Other power
sources may damage it. Check that the rating label on the equipment says 230V AC ( ~ ) before you
plug it in for the first time.
Mains plug
We have fitted this equipment with a standard mains plug.
• If the mains lead gets damaged it must be replaced by a qualified service agent with an approved
lead of the same type.
• If you cut off the mains plug, for example to fit a different type, please destroy the old plug as it would
be dangerous if inserted into a live power outlet. Carefully follow the wiring instructions supplied with
the new plug.
• If a fuse is fitted to the plug, remove the fuse before throwing the plug away.
• Carefully follow the wiring instructions supplied with a new mains plug.
• Never use a fused mains plug without the fuse cover.
Mains plug wiring for the UK
In a re-wirable plug the wires in the mains lead of this equipment must be connected as follows.
• The wire coloured brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L.
• The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter N.
• Do not connect anything to the earth terminal which is marked E, or
• You must make sure the mains lead is firmly secured under the cord clamp.
Mains fuse
UK standard (BS1363) plugs must have a 5 amp (BS1362 type) fuse fitted. Replace the plug or have
the power lead assembly replaced if the fuse cover is lost.
Symbols
This equipment is double
insulated and an earth connection is not required.
This mark is applied to show
the equipment conforms to
European safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards.
Dangerous voltage constituting
a risk of electric shock is present
inside this equipment.
There are important operating and
maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying this equipment.

Safe use and care of your audio equipment
We have designed and made this product to meet European safety standards, but as with any
electrical equipment you must take care to get the longest working life from it and stay safe. Here are
a few tips to help you do this.
Read these instructions carefully before you try to use the equipment.
Protect the mains lead. You must ensure the mains lead cannot be walked on, crushed, chafed, cut,
and so on.
Avoid harsh conditions such as wet or damp places, high humidity, strong vibration, extremely high
or low temperatures, strong sunlight or places which are dusty.
Never let anyone push objects into holes and ventilation slots.
Don't continue to use this equipment if you have spilt liquids in it, if it is damaged in any way or if it
does not work normally. Immediately unplug the equipment and get expert advice.
Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket during thunderstorms and disconnect the aerial lead.
This product is only designed for household or similar general use. Any other use may
invalidate the guarantee and might be dangerous.
Ventilation
Place the equipment on a hard flat surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources. If it is in a
cabinet, allow at least a 10 cm gap all around. Don't obstruct the ventilation slots, including those
underneath, with soft furnishings. Overheating will shorten the life of the equipment and increase the
risk of fire.
Cleaning
Disconnect the mains supply and use only a lightly dampened soft cloth. Do not use chemical solvents
or strong detergents as these may damage the cosmetic finish.
Batteries
Remove batteries when the equipment is not to be used for a long time. Batteries left in equipment
may cause damage through deterioration and corrosive leakage, invalidating the guarantee. To
protect the environment please use local recycling facilities for battery disposal.
Disposal
Waste electrical and electronic products must not be disposed of with
household waste. Please refer to your local authority for disposal
instructions.
Packaging materials can be recycled using your local collection facilities.

Important Safety warnings
• To prevent electric shock, do not remove any cover.
• If anything goes wrong, don't try and fix it yourself, get a qualified service agent to look at it.
• Do not expose this equipment to dripping or splashing or place any objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, on the equipment.
• Never put a naked flame source on or near the equipment.
• Small parts. Do not let young children play with the equipment.
• Do not move your device for 20 seconds after removing the power to ensure that the actuator
is completely locked. This helps prevent the media and the heads from accidental damage due
to vibration, moving or shipping.
• Do not switch the power ON or OFF, during HDD initialization.
