U.K. MAINS PLUG WARNING
A
moulded mains plug that has been cut off from the cord is unsafe. Discard
the mains plug at a suitable disposal facility.
NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUM-
STANCES SHOULD YOU INSERT A DAMAGED OR CUT MAINS PLUG INTO A
13 AMP POWER SOCKET.
Do not use the mains plug without the fuse cover
in place. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local retailer.
Replacement fuses are 13 amps and MUST be ASTA approved to BS1362.
The symbols shown above are internationally accepted symbols that warn of
potential hazards with electrical products. The lightning flash with arrowpoint in
an equilateral triangle means that there are dangerous voltages present within the
unit. The exclamation point in an equilateral triangle indicates that it is necessary
for the user to refer to the owner’s manual.
These symbols warn that there are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. Do
not open the unit. Do not attempt to service the unit yourself. Refer all servicing
to qualified personnel. Opening the chassis for any reason will void the manufac-
turer’s warranty. Do not get the unit wet. If liquid is spilled on the unit, shut it off
immediately and take it to a dealer for service. Disconnect the unit during storms
to prevent damage.
