Mains supply and safety

Important notice to UK users

Class II construction double insulated. These products
must not be connected to earth.

An AC power cord is normally supplied with a

mains plug suitable for your area. If you have any doubts, consult
your dealer about obtaining a suitable power cord.

The mains voltage of Audiolab units is shown on

the rear panel. If this does not match the voltage in your area,
consult your dealer. The mains supply fuse is on the rear panel. If
it has broken, check for any obvious cause before replacing the
fuse with one of the correct rating and type. The fuses for all areas
are type T (time lag ) AL 20mm.
The fuse values are: 220-240V:T1.0A 100-120V: 1.6A

The fuse is located in a slide-in
carrier which also contains a spare
fuse. The carrier can only be pulled
out after the IEC power cord is
unplugged. When the carrier is
opened the first fuse is the spare.
Remove and safely dispose of the
blown fuse before replacing it.

The appliance cord is terminated with a UK approved mains plug
fitted with a A fuse. If

the fuse needs to be replaced, an ASTA or

BSI approved BS1362 fuse rated at 3A must be used. If you need
to change the mains plug, remove the fuse and dispose of this
plug safely immediately after cutting it from the cord.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
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 Blue wire must be
connected to the terminal
marked with the letter N or
coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The BROWN wire must be
connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L or
coloured BROWN or RED.
