Plug Fitting Instructions (UK Only)
Loudspeakers
The cord supplied with this appliance is factory fitted with a UK mains plug fitted
with a 3 amp fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that
a 3 amp one is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for
your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug
fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of
safely, as insertion into a mains socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.
Should it be necessary to fit a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires
should be fitted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains
lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows:
Before making any connections to loudspeakers, make sure all power is
turned off and only use suitable interconnects.
Servicing
These units are not user serviceable, never attempt to repair, disassemble
or reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric
shock could result if this precautionary measure is ignored. In the event
of a problem or failure, please contact your dealer.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter ‘N’ or coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter ‘L’ or coloured RED.
The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW
must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter ‘E’ or coloured GREEN.
If a 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 3 amp fuse must be fitted, or if any other
type of plug is used a 3 amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or
on the distribution board.

Service port
Connect each end of the single length antenna to the antenna terminals.
Place the antenna as far from the main system as possible to prevent
unwanted noise and to obtain optimum reception. If the AM loop aerial
provided does not provide sufficient reception, it may be necessary to use
an outdoor AM aerial.
For servicing use only. Do not connect anything here as it may result in
damage.
6
Loudspeaker terminals
Two sets of loudspeaker terminals are available, A (main loudspeaker
terminals, top row) and B (secondary switchable loudspeaker terminals,
bottom row). Connect the wires from your left channel loudspeaker to the
Left positive and negative terminals, and the wires from the right channel
loudspeaker to the Right positive and negative terminals.
In each case, the red terminal is the positive output and the black
terminal is the negative output.
FM aerial
Connect the supplied aerial to the FM 75 ohm socket. Extend and move
the aerial lead around until you get the best reception. For continued use,
we strongly recommend using a 75 ohm outdoor FM aerial.
Care should be taken to ensure no stray strands of wire are shorting
speaker outputs together. Please ensure that the loudspeaker terminals
have been tightened adequately to provide a good electrical connection.
It is possible for the sound quality to be affected if the screw terminals are
loose.
The use of A and B speakers affords you an easy and inexpensive way to
create a simple multi-room system.
Note: When using two pairs of speakers, use speakers with a nominal
impedance of 8 ohms.

Connections
Loudspeakers
Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers,
you can use types with an impedance of between 4 and 8 Ohms. When
using two pairs of speakers, you must use types with an impedance of 8
Ohms each, see later section.
Note: All connections are made using standard loudspeaker cable.
The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker
terminals are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at
each speaker connector or the sound can become weak and “phasey”
with little bass.
Basic connection
The diagram below shows the basic connection of your unit to a
CD player and a turntable and a pair of loudspeakers.
Using bare wire connections
Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately
10mm (3/8”) or less of the outer insulation. More than 10mm could
cause a short circuit. Twist the wires tightly together so there are no loose
ends. Unscrew the speaker terminal, insert the speaker cable, tighten
the terminal and secure the cable.
