Thank you for selecting the Philips DCC 900 Digital
Compact Cassette recorder. :
DCC is the logical, digital successor to Compact Cassette, It
meets higher demands for sound quality, durability and style.
DCC is the marriage of Compact Cassette to Digital Audio, and
it forms a union that combines perfect sound and high
convenience with great versatility.
Like Compact Cassette, DCC is a record and playback system
that features both prerecorded 'Digital Music cassettes' and
blank DCC's. With its advanced system of digital registration
on tape, DCC is Compact Cassette made digital and totally
modernised.
On top of this DCC has a4 unique and practical advantage: it is
compatible with its analogue ancestor. Users can play their
existing analogue Compact Cassette collections on your new
DCC 900 cassette player.
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.
lf the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of
3A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution
board should not be greater than 5A.
NOTE: The severed plug 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. Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the
plug which is marked by the ietter "E" or by the safety
earth symbo! + or coloured green or green-and-yello w.
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.
