Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A.
or BSI approved type.
3Refit 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 of 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
coloured black.
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.
– Do not connect either wire to the ear th terminal in
the plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green
and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make cer tain that the
cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not
simply over the two wires.

Environmental information
All unnecessar y packaging has been omitted.  We have tried
to make the packaging easy to separate into three materials:
cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer) and
polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).
Your system consists of materials which can be recycled
and reused if disassembled by a specialised company. Please
obser ve the local regulations regarding the disposal of
packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.
Installation

Place the system on a flat, hard, and stable surface.

There must be sufficient room in front of the system for
the drawer to open.

In a cabinet, allows about 10cm (4 inches) of free space all
around the system for adequate ventilation.

Do not expose your system to extreme temperatures or
humidity.
Maintenance

When a disc becomes dir ty, clean it with
a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the
centre out, in a straight line.

Do not expose the system, batteries or
discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive
heat (caused by heating equipment or
direct sunlight).  Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid
dust on the lens.

Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for color
discs.

The lens may cloud over when the system is suddenly
moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it
impossible to play a disc. Leave the system in the warm
environment until the moisture evaporates.
