IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

For your own safety read following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this Amplifier to the mains. Mains Supply: 230V ~ 50Hz - AC only This unit is designed to operate on a 230V~50Hz supply only. Connecting it to other power sources may damage it. Ensure that the supply corresponds to the information on the rating label on the bottom of the Amplifier. This component system may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a non-rewireable plug the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover becomes lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement, available from the manufacturer, is obtained. It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the colour marking on the base of the plug. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into a 13A socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains plug should be connected as shown in the diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of the unit may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows:The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red. There should be no connection to the earth terminal of your plug. If a 13 Amp (BS 1363) Plug is used, a 3 Amp Fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of Plug is used a 3 Amp or 5 Amp Fuse must be fitted, either in the Plug or Adaptor, or on the Distribution Board.
