EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING
Depending on the destination area, your MARANTZ product has been
prepared to operate either on a predetermined mains voltage or on a
variable voltage which can be selected with a voltage selector (110 V,
120 V, 220 V, 240 V). The voltage for the former type has been set to:
240 V for Australia and U.K. models, 230 V for General Europe model.
However, the voltages for these models can also be switched to 230 V
and 240 V respectively. When it is required to switch the predetermined
voltage of your model, please consult your dealer or the service station
in your area,
IMPORTANT:
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 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 3A, 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.
ifthe mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 3A. Ifa plug
without a fuseis used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be
greater than 5A.
NOTE: The severed piug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
HOW TO CONNECT A PLUG
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
BLUE—"NEUTRAL'" ("N")
BROWN—"LIVE" ("L")
1. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter "N" or coloured BLACK.
2. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter "L" or coloured RED.
3. Donot connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is
marked by the letter "E" or by the safety earth symbol = 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.
