Important safety instructions

For safe operation and optimal lifetime

Your receiver has been manufactured to meet the appropriate safety standards, but the instructions below must be followed to operate it safely.These instructions must be kept for future reference.

- Before connecting the receiver to the mains, check that the mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage printed on the rear of the receiver. If the mains voltage is different, consult your dealer.

- The receiver does not contain any user-serviceable parts. All maintenance work must be carried out by qualified personnel.

- If you disconnect the receiver from the mains, make sure you unplug it from the wall socket and not just from the AC socket at the back of the unit. Children could seriously injure themselves, as the free end of the cable is still alive.

- Unplug the receiver during lightning storms.

- To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.

- The receiver should be placed on a firm surface, and the ventilation openings must not be covered with items, such as newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc.

- Do not install the receiver near any heat sources such as radiators, stoves or other apparatus that produce heat. Protect it from direct sunlight.

- When installing the receiver, ensure there is a gap of approximately 2.5 cm around the receiver to enable air to circulate freely and prevent overheating.

- Ensure accessibility is maintained to the mains connector at the back of the unit in case emergency shutdown is required.

- Do not place any combustible objects on the receiver (candles, etc.).

- No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the unit.The receiver shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. Should this happen, disconnect your receiver from the mains and consult your dealer.

- Make sure that children do not place any foreign objects in any of the openings.

- For cleaning, use a soft, damp (not wet) cloth. Never use any abrasive cloth or aerosol cleaners.

6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

English

Mains connection

Important note

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded BS1363 plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

- Remove fuse cover and fuse.

- Fit a new fuse that should be a BS

1362 ASTA approved type.

- 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 3A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.

Note: the severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard, should it be inserted into an

appropriate socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

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

• BLUE - “NEUTRAL” (“N”)

• BROWN - “LIVE” (“L”)

- The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal, which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.

- The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal, which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured RED.

- Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug that is marked by the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol 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.
