Registration Card 1 Important notes for users in the U.K. Mains plug This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows: Italia DICHIARAZIONE DI CONFORMITA' Si dichiara che l'apparecchio MC-500, Philips risponde alle prescrizioni dell'art. 2 comma 1 del D.M. 28 Agosto 1995 n. 548. Fatto a Eindhoven Philips Consumer Electronics Philips, Glaslaan 2 5616 JB Eindhoven, The Netherlands 1 2 3 Remove fuse cover and fuse. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type. 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. Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere. Norge Typeskilt finnes på apparatens underside. 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. 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. CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure or other unsafe operation.
