Mains Supply

This equipment is designed to operate on 220-240V AC 50Hz only. Do not operate on DC power
supplies or other voltages. Before connecting to the mains, please read the following instructions
Important for the U.K.
The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse, the
value of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or
BSI approved BS1362 of the same rating must be used. If the fuse cover is detachable, never use the
plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as
that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from your dealer.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points
or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then use an appropriate safety approved extension
Should it be necessary to change the mains plug, this must be carried out by a competent person,
If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that you dispose of it immediately, having
first removed the fuse, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
