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 Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2
Fix new fuse which should be a
BS1362
5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3 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 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 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
mark
ings 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.

Clean the receiver with a soft,

REMOTE CONTROL

Open the battery compartment
of the remote control and insert
2 alkaline batteries, type AA
(R06, UM-3).
Remove batteries if they are flat
or the remote control is not going
to be used for a long time.
Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should
be disposed of properly.
The buttons on the remote control work the same way as the
corresponding ones on the receiver.
Important!
You have to press a source button for longer than 2 seconds
to switch the sound source on the receiver. Pressing a source
button for less than 2 seconds will only switch the remote
control to use the commands for the selected product.
The remote control remains tuned to the selected source until
another source button on the remote control is pressed. This
enables you to operate additional sources (i. e. winding a
tape) without changing the source on the receiver.

REMOTE CONTROL
8
You can identify the universal remote control by the
inscription Multibrand/Universal.
The universal remote control must be programmed to use the
codes for your appliances of different brands. This is done by
keying in a 4-digit code or by scanning the codes until the
correct one is found. We recommend to using the 4-digit
code. This method is faster and more reliable. The code
scanning method should only be used if you cannot find the
code for one of your appliances. The code table can be found
at the end of the booklet.
Important!
The buttons of the remote control must be used for
programming, not the buttons of the receiver or other
appliances.
Programming with the 4-digit code
1 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be
controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.
2 Key in the 4-digit code for the appliance (codetable at the
end of the booklet).
Notes: – If more than 4 digits are entered, the remote
control will recognize only the ones keyed in first.
– If you do not key in a code within 30 seconds the
remote control will switch off the programming
function without changing the code.
– To program a new appliance, simply overwrite the
old code by entering a new one.
Scanning the codetable
1 Switch on the appliance which should be controlled.
2 Keep the source button for the appliance which should be
controlled and2 pressed for 3 seconds.
3 Press and release 2 again.
yThe remote control sends the codes for channel up or
standby (depending on the selected source) for one
brand after the other.
4 As soon as the appliance reacts – switches to the next
channel or to standby – press 2 to confirm the code.
yThe identified code will be used.
• If the set does not react within 2 minutes, the code for this
appliance is not stored in the remote control. The code of
the remote control will remain unchanged.
Note: When taking out the batteries of the remote control for
more than 1 minute the codes must be reprogrammed.
Once you have found and tested the codes for your various
appliances, you may want to write them down here.

codes.
