Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in
this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. In
Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. In
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI
approved type.
3. In
Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off
and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a
fuse, this should have a value of 3 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used,
the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 3 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue =
neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the
colour markings identifying 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 e) or coloured green (or green and yellow).
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.

DYNAMIC RANGE CONTROL (DRC)
DRC adds or removes a degree of compensation for the differences in the
dynamic range between radio stations. For example, a station broadcasting popular music may have a high level of compensation applied since the emphasis is
on a constant high listening level, whereas a station broadcasting classical
music will have little or no compensation as the listener requires all of the highs
and lows in the music to define the detail.
There are three levels of compensation:
DRC 0: No compensation applied.
DRC 1: Maximum compensation applied (This is the default.).
DRC1/2: Medium compensation applied.
