This unit conforms to VDE safety regulations and directives of the Deutsche
Bundespost (German Federal Post Office; see certification mark on the type
sticker on the rear of the unit), as well as all relevant ordinances governing
X-ray emissions. The picture tube, which emits X-rays, is sufficiently shiel­ded and therefore represents no danger. Accelerating voltage is max. 25 kV
with a mean beam current of 0,8 mA.
Unauthorized tampering with the unit, in particular making adjustments to
the high voltage system, or installing a different picture tube, can consider­ably increase X-ray emissions. Units so altered no longer conform to appli­cable safety regulations and may not be operated.

220-240V, 50/60Hz (power supply control range 165 – 265V)
Power consumption approx. 40 W; in standby 11 W.
Sound output: 2 W music power (1 W sine power).
The mains cable is a plug-in model. Please give order no. 8290-991-220 to
customer service if a replacement is needed.

Subject to alterations. E. and O.E.

Additional Information for Units sold in Great Britain

Units sold in GB are suitable for operation from a 240 V AC, 50 Hz mains
supply.

In case this appliance is supplied with a Safet

y Standard Approved mains lead
fitted with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your
socket, should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted by a qualified electrician.
The fuse and fuse holder must be removed from the plug as accidental insertion
of the redundant plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an electrical
hazard.

Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard

should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type
and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) must be used and the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged the lead and plug
must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers
should be obtained from your dealer.

If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must
be fitted with a 5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse. If any othe type of
plug is used it must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse either in the plug or at the
distribution board.

Important:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not corre­spond with the coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter "N" or
coloured black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with a letter "L"
or coloured red.
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked
with a letter "E", earth symbol , coloured green or green and yellow.

Replacement mains lead can be obtained from your dealer.
