Safety-Important notes for users in the U.K.  
For users in the U.K.: please follow the instructions below  
Mains plug  
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in  
this type of plug proceed as follows:  
a
b
Remove fuse cover and fuse.  
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI  
approved type.  
c
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 off 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 markings identifying  
the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:  
Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or colored black.  
Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or colored red.  
Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked  
E (or ) or colored 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.

Hearing safety  
Listen at a moderate volume.  
Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This  
product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing  
loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The  
higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already  
experienced some hearing loss.  
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing ‘comfort level’  
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what  
sounds ‘normal’ can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To  
guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing  
adapts and leave it there.  
To establish a safe volume level:  
Set your volume control at a low setting.  
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and  
clearly, without distortion.  
Listen for reasonable periods of time:  
Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also  
cause hearing loss.  
Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate  
breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.  
Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.  
Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.  
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around  
you.  
You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially  
hazardous situations. Do not use headphones while operating a  
motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic  
hazard and is illegal in many areas.  
Warning  
Never remove the casing of this apparatus.  
Never lubricate any part of this apparatus.  
Never place this apparatus on other electrical equipment.

disconnect the apparatus from the power.
