Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.To change a fuse in
this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI
approved type.
3. Refit 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 3 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse
at the distribution board should not be greater than 3 Amp.
Note:The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock haz-
ard 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 fol-
lows:
•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 earth terminal in the plug,
marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped
over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

About MP3
The music compression
technology MP3 (MPEG1
Audio Layer 3) significantly
reduce the digital data of an
audio CD while maintaining
CD quality sound.
•Getting MP3 files: you
can either download legal
music files from the internet
to your computer hard disc,
or create such files by con-
verting audio CD files in
your computer through
appropriate encoder soft-
ware. (128kbps bit rate or
higher is recommended for
MP3 files.)
•Creating a MP3 CD:
burn the music files from
your computer hard disc on
a CDR or CDRW using
your CD burner.
Helpful hints:
– Make sure that the file
names of the MP3 files end
with .mp3.
– Total number of music files
and albums: around 350
(with a typical file name
length of 20 characters)
– The length of file names
affects the number of tracks
for playback. With shorter file
names, more files can be
burned on a disc.
