Warning  
Guidelines for safe operation  
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to  
comply with international safety standards.  
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this  
equipment.  
However, as with any electrical appliance, care must be tak-  
en to ensure optimal results and operational safety.  
If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your  
home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then  
obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adap-  
tor or consult your dealer.  
• Before attempting to use this equipment, read the operating  
instructions thoroughly.  
• Ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains  
plug, extension leads, etc.) have been made in accordance  
with the manufacturer’s instructions.  
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and  
dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock  
hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.  
• If ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of  
this equipment, consult your dealer.  
If a new mains plug has to be fitted, then follow the instruc-  
tion given below:  
• Handle all glass panels or covers with care.  
Important  
• Never operate this equipment if it appears damaged or oper-  
ates abnormally. Turn the power off, disconnect the main  
power plug and consult your dealer.  
Do not make any connection to the larger terminal which is  
marked with the letter E or by the safety earth symbol “ ” or  
coloured green or green-and-yellow.  
• Never remove any affixed panels or covers. Doing so may  
result in electrical shock.  
The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured in  
accordance with the following code:  
• Never leave this equipment operating unattended unless  
otherwise specifically stated that it is designed to do so or  
in standby mode. Only use the designated power switch to  
turn off the power and ensure that all potential users are in-  
structed how to do so. Make special arrangements for in-  
firm or handicapped persons.  
Blue: Neutral  
Brown: Live  
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured  
marking identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as fol-  
lows:  
• Never listen to headphones at high volume. Doing so may  
damage your hearing.  
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the ter-  
minal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.  
• Never obstruct the ventilation of this equipment. Doing so  
may cause overheating and result in a malfunction or dam-  
age.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.  
When replacing the fuse only a correctly rated approved type  
should be used and be sure to re-fit the fuse cover.  
• Never use makeshift stands or attempt to affix legs with  
wood screws. When using a manufacturer’s approved stand  
or legs, use only the fixtures provided and follow the instal-  
lation instructions.  
If in doubt — consult a competent electrician.  
How to replace the fuse  
• Never allow this equipment to be exposed to rain or mois-  
ture.  
Open the fuse compartment with a blade screwdriver, and re-  
place the fuse.  
• Never allow anyone, especially children, to insert anything  
into an opening in the case. Doing so may result in a fatal  
electrical shock.  
• Never guess or take chances with electrical equipment of  
any kind. It is better to be safe than sorry.
