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 5 Amp, 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. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp. Italia Norge DICHIARAZIONE DI CONFORMITA’ Typeskilt finnes på apparatens underside. Si dichiara che l’apparecchio FW830C e FW870C Philips risponde alle prescrizioni dell’art. 2 comma 1 del D.M. 28 Agosto 1995 n. 548. Fatto a Eindhoven , il 30/2/1999 Observer: Nettbryteren er sekundert innkoplet. Den innebygde netdelen er derfor ikke frakoplet nettet så lenge apparatet er tilsluttet nettkontakten. For å redusere faren for brann eller elektrisk støt, skal apparatet ikke utsettes for regn eller fuktighet. Philips Consumer Electronics Philips, Glaslaan 2 5616 JB Eindhoven, The Netherlands Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere. How to connect a plug The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: • Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black. • Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red. • Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) 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.

Safety Information • Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer. The typeplate is located at the rear of your system. • When the system is switched on, do not move it around. • Place the system on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet). • Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your system. • The system incorporates a built-in safety feature that prevents over heating. • Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources. • Under no circumstances should you repair the system yourself, as this will invalidate the warranty! • If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the CD unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD player will not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the system until normal playback is possible. • Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected problems. See whether these problems disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and plug it in again after a few seconds. • To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
