Safety Information and Precaution
IMPORTANT!
The mains lead on this equipment may be supplied with a
moulded plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is
indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be
replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse must be used
of the same rating. If the fuse cover is detachable never use the
plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse cover is
required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the
pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from your
dealer.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. 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 consult your
dealer.
Should it be necessary to change the mains plug, this must be
carried out by a competent person, preferably a qualified
electrician.
If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that
you dispose of it immediately, having first removed the fuse, to
avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the
mains supply.
IMPORTANT!
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Blue : NEUTRAL
Brown : LIVE
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire
coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked
with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
On no account connect either of these wires to the terminal
marked E or by the earth symbol E or coloured green or
green and yellow.
Alternatively, this equipment may be supplied with a rewireable
plug already fitted, which may be removed if not suitable and an
alternative fitted in accordance with the preceding instructions.
SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE
USE OF EQUIPMENT
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet
international safety standards but, like any electrical
equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best
results and safety is to be assured.
*****************************************************************
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use
the equipment.
DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains
plug, extension leads and inter-connections between the
pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw
the mains plug before making or changing connections.
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the
installation, operation or safety of your equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
DO route the mains lead so that it is not likely to be walked on,
crushed, chafed, or subjected to excessive wear and tear or
heat.
*****************************************************************
DON’T remove any xed cover as this may expose dangerous
voltages.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation openings of the equipment with
items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the
equipment.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to dripping or
splashing, or objects lled with liquids, such as vases, to be
placed on the equipment.
DON’T place hot objects or naked ame sources such as
lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to equipment. High
temperatures can melt plastic and lead to res.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER x legs with wood
screws - to ensure
complete safety always t the manufacturer’s approved stand
or legs with the xings
provided according to the instructions.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so
that you are distracted from
the requirements of trafc safety. It is illegal to watch television
whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can
permanently damage your
hearing.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended
unless it is specically stated
that it is designed for unattended operation or has a stand-by
mode. Switch off using the
switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know
how to do this. Special
arrangements may need to be made for inrm or handicapped
people.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any
doubt about it working
normally, or if it is damaged in any way - switch off, withdraw
the mains plug and consult
your dealer.
ABOVE ALL
¬¬--- NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into
holes, slots or any other opening in the case - this could 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!
