IMPORTANT NOTES FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug To change a fuse
in this type of plug proceed as follows:

• Remove fuse cover and fuse.

• Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

• Refit the fuse cover
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cui off and an

appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mams plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug

without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp

Note: The severed plug must be disposed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a

13 Amp socket elsewhere

Howto connect a plug

The wires in the mams lead are coloured with the following code blue = neutral (N), brown = live (U
As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identif/mg the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:

• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black.

• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red

• Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or i) or coloured green (or
green and yellovi/).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead

- not simply over the two wires.

show the time display. Pressing POWER ® or
SLEEP ® will turn on the radio for a short
period of time before it automatically turns off
again. The period will get shorter as the
batteries run lower.
Continued operation with low batteries causes

9/10 kHz SELECTOR

The minimum 'frequency distance' (span division)
between adjacent radio stations (measured in
kHz) is standardized all over the world.
However, North and South America use another
standard than the rest of the world.
This means that the radio should use a tuning
step according to the standard concerned in order
to obtain accurate radio tuning.
The 9/10 kHz switch (g) in the battery
compartment allows accurate tuning for both
standards and has a double function.
