DO NOT under any circumstances plug the severed plug into any mains socket as this could result in electric shock. IMPORTANT : If the plug is removed rewire new plug as follows : The wires in the mains plug are coloured in accordance with the following code : BLUE - NEUTRAL BROWN - LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows :
BLUE wire to the terminal coded N (Neutral) or coloured black.
BROWN wire to the terminal coded L (Live) or coloured red. DO NOT make any connection to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter E or by the safety earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. A fused plug must be fitted with a 5A fuse approved by ASTA or BSI to BS 1362 and fuse covers must always be securely replaced.

REMOTE BATTERIES

The ends are usually marked + and –. Replace the batteries when the unit no longer operates at normal viewing distances. For a clearer environment, please dispose of used batteries in the containers provided for this purpose.

NOTE

When replacing batteries do not mix old and new - do not mix makes and types. Alkaline types are recommended for long life. Never risk damage to the remote control by extreme heat - do not leave close to a radiator or on a window ledge in direct sunshine.
