FOREWORD

Be sure to read this section before any connection to the mains supply.

WARNINGS

Never expose the equipment to rain or moisture. Never remove the equipment’s cover.

Never insert anything into the equipment’s vents. Never handle the mains lead while your hands are wet.

EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING

This Marantz product is available in two different variations, depending on geographical area. One variation has a preset mains voltage (230V for General Europe model and U.K. model), while the other variation features variable voltage that can be selected using a voltage selector on rear panel (115V/230V).

The voltage selector must be set for your local mains voltage before any connection to the mains supply. If you need to change its voltage setting, consult your dealer your local Marantz service provider.

IMPORTANT: (FOR U.K. MODEL)

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 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 5A, A.S.T.A. or BSI ap- proved 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 5A. 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 a 13A socket elsewhere.

HOW TO CONNECT A PLUG (FOR U.K. MODEL)

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the follow- ing code:

BLUE— “NEUTRAL” (“N”)

BROWN—“LIVE” (“L”)

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

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

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