Please read the safety instructions
Do not permit children to handle electrical devices without •
supervision, they cannot correctly assess the possible risks
of injury.
Check the device and all parts for visible damages. Should
•
the device become damaged, immediately remove the plug
from the wall socket. Then arrange for the device to be
checked by Customer Services.
Risk of electric shock
Connect the device only to power sockets supplying a mains •
voltage of 230 V ~/50 Hz when using the supplied mains
adapter.
Do not operate the device if the mains adapter, the adapt-
•
er's power cable or the device itself is damaged. Arrange
for a defective mains adapter to be repaired or replaced as
soon as possible by Customer Services.
NEVER open the device. There are no user-servicable ele-
•
ments inside. Should you do so, the safety of the device may
be compromised and the warranty becomes void.
NEVER submerse the device in water. Wipe it only with a
•
slightly damp cloth.
Protect the product from moisture. Use it only in dry rooms,
•
do not use it outdoors or close to liquids.
Ensure that neither the device nor the mains adapter could
•
become wet or damp or sustain any other damage during
use.
Notice regarding power disconnection
•
To completely separate the device from mains power, the
mains adapter must be unplugged from the wall socket.

- 4 -
For this reason, the device should be placed at a location
where unobstructed access to the power socket is assured
at all times, so that you are able to immediately remove the
plug in the event of an emergency. To eliminate the risk of
re, prevent unintended activation and save energy costs,
the mains adapter should be unplugged from the wall socket
when the device is not in use. The mains adapter consumes
power even when the radio is switched o.
Always grasp the mains adapter directly when you wish to
•
unplug it. Do not pull on the cable and never touch the mains
adapter with wet hands, this could result in a short circuit or
you receiving an electric shock. Do not place furniture or other
objects on the cable of the mains adapter, and ensure that it
cannot become trapped. Never tie knots in the power cable,
and do not join it to other cables. Lay the mains adapter cable,
and also the headphone cable, so that no one can step on
or trip over it. A damaged mains adapter can cause a re
or electric shock. Check the mains adapter from time to time.
Should it become damaged, contact your nearest authorised
customer service centre or your dealer to have it replaced.
When a storm and/or thunderstorm with the risk of lightning
•
threatens, please disconnect the mains adapter from the
power socket.
