The exclamation point within an equilateral 

triangle is intended to alert the user to the 

presence of important operating and 

maintenance (servicing) instructions in the 

literature accompanying the appliance.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, 

within an equilateral triangle, is intended to 

alert the user to the presence of uninsulated 

“dangerous voltage” within the product’s 

enclosure that may be of sufficient 

magnitude to constitute a risk of electric 

shock to persons.

CAUTION:

TO PREVENT THE RISK OF ELECTRIC 

SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR 

BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS 

INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED 

SERVICE PERSONNEL.

WARNING

This equipment is not waterproof. To prevent a fire or 

shock hazard, do not place any container filled with 

liquid near this equipment (such as a vase or flower 

pot) or expose it to dripping, splashing, rain or 

moisture.

D3-4-2-1-3_A1_En

WARNING

Before plugging in for the first time, read the following 

section carefully.

The voltage of the available power supply differs 

according to country or region. Be sure that the 

power supply voltage of the area where this unit 

will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., 230 V 

or 120 V) written on the rear panel.

D3-4-2-1-4*_A1_En

WARNING

To prevent a fire hazard, do not place any naked flame 

sources (such as a lighted candle) on the equipment.

D3-4-2-1-7a_A1_En

VENTILATION CAUTION

When installing this unit, make sure to leave space 

around the unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation 

(at least 40 cm at top, 10 cm at rear, and 20 cm at each 

side).

WARNING

Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for 

ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product, 

and to protect it from overheating. To prevent fire 

hazard, the openings should never be blocked or 

covered with items (such as newspapers, table-cloths, 

curtains) or by operating the equipment on thick carpet 

or a bed.

D3-4-2-1-7b*_A1_En

Operating Environment

Operating environment temperature and humidity:

+5 °C to +35 °C (+41 °F to +95 °F); less than 85 %RH 

(cooling vents not blocked)

Do not install this unit in a poorly ventilated area, or in 

locations exposed to high humidity or direct sunlight (or 

strong artificial light)

D3-4-2-1-7c*_A1_En

If the AC plug of this unit does not match the AC 

outlet you want to use, the plug must be removed 

and appropriate one fitted. Replacement and 

mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of 

this unit should be performed only by qualified 

service personnel. If connected to an AC outlet, the 

cut-off plug can cause severe electrical shock. Make 

sure it is properly disposed of after removal.

The equipment should be disconnected by removing 

the mains plug from the wall socket when left unused 

for a long period of time (for example, when on 

vacation).

D3-4-2-2-1a_A1_En

CAUTION

The 



STANDBY/ON

 switch on this unit will not 

completely shut off all power from the AC outlet. 

Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect 

device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the 

AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore, make 

sure the unit has been installed so that the power 

cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in 

case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power 

cord should also be unplugged from the AC outlet 

when left unused for a long period of time (for 

example, when on vacation).

D3-4-2-2-2a*_A1_En

This product is for general household purposes. Any 

failure due to use for other than household purposes 

(such as long-term use for business purposes in a 

restaurant or use in a car or ship) and which requires 

repair will be charged for even during the warranty 

period.

K041_A1_En

D3-4-2-1-2-2*_A2_En

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified 

service personnel.

IMPORTANT: THE MOULDED PLUG

This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 10 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. 

Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 10 amps and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI 

to BS1362.

Check for the ASTA mark  

or the BSI mark  

on the body of the fuse.

If the plug contains a removable fuse cover, you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced. If you lose the fuse cover the plug 

must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. A replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your local dealer.

If the fitted moulded plug is unsuitable for your socket outlet, then the fuse shall be removed and the plug cut off and disposed of 

safely. There is a danger of severe electrical shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket.

If a new plug is to be fitted, please observe the wiring code as shown below. If in any doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

                    Blue : Neutral    Brown : Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in 

your plug, proceed as follows;

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the 

letter 

N

 or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the 

letter 

L

 or coloured RED.

How to replace the fuse:

 Open the fuse compartment with a screwdriver and replace the fuse.

Loading the batteries

The batteries included with the unit are to check 

initial operations; they may not last over a long 

period. We recommend using alkaline batteries 

that have a longer life.

 WARNING

!

  Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight 

or other excessively hot place, such as inside a 

car or near a heater. This can cause batteries 

to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It 

can also reduce the life or performance of 

batteries.

 CAUTION

Incorrect use of batteries may result in such 

hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the 

following precautions:

!

  Never use new and old batteries together.

!

  Insert the plus and minus sides of the 

batteries properly according to the marks in 

the battery case.

!

  Batteries with the same shape may have 

different voltages. Do not use different 

batteries together.

!

  When disposing of used batteries, please 

comply with governmental regulations or 

environmental public instruction’s rules that 

apply in your country or area.
