Wiring the Mains Power Supply Plug(UK Only)
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The main lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on
the pin face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the
same colour as the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer. If the fitted plug is not
suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a
suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance. However, if there is no alternative to cutting
off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a main socket as there is a risk
of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a main socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the main 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.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER E
OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.

The MW/LW aerial (for long and medium waves) can be:
Placed on a stable surface
Fixed to the wall (you must first remove the base)
The MW/LW aerial connector terminals are located on the rear of
the system and are marked MW/LW ANT.
To avoid noise interference, check that the
loudspeaker wires do not run close to the aerial
wires. Always keep them at least 2 inches (5 cm)
away.
There are 3 types of aerials, depending on the SET OPTION.
1How to connect a WIRE TYPE aerial.
Spread the FM aerial out and attach the ends to a wall, in
the position providing the best reception.
If reception is poor (e.g. distance from transmitter too great,
walls blocking the radio waves, etc.), install an outdoor
aerial.
2How to connect a COAXIAL TYPE aerial.
Connect a 75Ωantenna to the FM antenna terminal.
Plug the connector on the FM aerial supplied into the
coaxial socket (75Ω) marked FM on the rear of the system.
Follow the instructions given on Page 8 to tune into a radio
station, and determine the best position for the aerial.
If reception is poor, you may need to install an outdoor
aerial.
To do so, connect an outdoor FM aerial to the FM socket on
the rear of the system using a 75Ωcoaxial cable
(not supplied).
