INFORMATION_____________________________________

Additional Information for units sold in the UK.

Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains supply.

The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European coun- tries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from many European countries.

This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated fuse.

In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only, which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a qualified electrician.

Note:

The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.

If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective, ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock hazard.

If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be obtained from your dealer.

Important:

The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the follo- wing code:

BLUE – NEUTRAL

BROWN – LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not cor- respond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, pro- ceed as follows:

Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured black.

Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the let- ter “L” or coloured red.

In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal mar- ked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “￿”, coloured green, or green & yellow.
