IMPORTANT

Important Safeguards

For your own safety read following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this recorder to the mains. Mains Supply: 230 ~ 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 at the rear of the recorder. 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.

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

BLUE (NEUTRAL)

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

OUTER SLEEVE

letter ‘N’ or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be

CORD GRIP

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.

FUSE

BROWN (LIVE)

This symbol means that this unit is double insulated. An earth connection is not required.

ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL

• Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the impression that the volume has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you may in fact that be harmful. To guard against this BEFORE YOUR HEARING ADAPTS set the volume at a low level.

• Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortable and clearly and without distortion

• Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible.

• Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is maybe too loud.

Once your have established a comfortable listening level, DO NOT INCREASE THE SOUND LEVEL FURTHER.

The following list of typical sound levels may assist you in recognising just how loud you have set the volume level.

DECIBLE Level(dB) Example

30dB Quiet library, soft whisper. 40dB Living room, fridge frezzer bedroom away from trafﬁc. 50dB Normal conservation, quiet ofﬁce, light trafﬁc. 60dB Electric sewing machine. 70dB Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant

THE FOLLOWING NOISE CAN BE HARMFUL UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE

80dB Average city trafﬁc, alarm clock buzzer at 2 feet, food mixer. 90dB Motorcycle heavy goods vehicle, petrol lawn mower. 100dB Pneumatic drill, chair saw, garbage truck, discotheque/night-club. 120dB Rock band concert, thunderclap fast train passing by.
