Important Note for Users in the UK Mains plug This apparatus is fitted with an approved 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 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. 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. i • • 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.

General information CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,even if this unit itself is turned off.This state is called the standby mode.In this state,this unit is designed to consume a very small quantity of power. ATTENTION L’emploi de commandes, de réglages ou un choix de procédures différents des spécifications de cette brochure peut entraîner une exposition à d’éventuelles radiations pouvant être dangereses. L ’appareil n ’est pas isolé de la source d ’alimentation aussi longtemps qu ’il reste branché sur une prise murale,même lorsqu ’il est éteint.Il est alors dit en mode «Veille ».Dans ce mode, l ’appareil consomme très peu de courant. ACHTUNG Die Verwendung von Bedienungselementen oder Einstellungen oder die Durchführung von Bedienungsvorgängen, die nicht in dieser Anleitung aufgeführt sind, kann zu einem Kontakt mit gefährlichen Laserstrahlen führen. OBSERVERA Användning av kontroller och justeringar eller genomförande av procedurer andra än de som specificeras i denna bok kan resultera i att du utsätter dig för farlig strålning. ATTENZIONE Uso di controlli o regolazioni o procedure non specificamente descritte può causare l’esposizione a radiazioni di livello pericoloso. PRECAUCIÓN El uso de los controles o los procedimientos de ajuste o utilización diferentes de los especificados en este manual pueden causar una exposición peligrosa a la radiación. VOORZICHTIG Gebruik van bedieningsorganen of instellingen, of uitvoeren van handelingen anders dan staan beschreven in deze handleiding kunnen leiden tot blootstelling aan gevaarlijke stralen. Das Gerät ist nicht vom Netz getrennt, solange der Netzstecker noch mit der Wandsteckdose verbunden ist, selbst wenn das Gerät ausgeschaltet wurde. Dieser Betriebszustand wird als Bereitschaftsmodus bezeichnet. In diesem Zustand nimmt das Gerät eine sehr geringe Menge Strom auf. Enheten är inte urkopplad från nätet så länge som den är ansluten till vägguttaget även om enheten i sig självt är avstängd. Detta kallas för beredskapsläge och i detta tillstånd konsumerar apparaten minimalt med ström. L’unità non è scollegata dall’impianto elettrico di casa sintanto che rimane collegata ad una presa di corrente anche se è spenta. Questo modo viene chiamato “modo di attesa”. In esso, l’unità consuma una quantità molto bassa di energia per mantenere in memoria le impostazioni da voi fatte. Aunque el propio aparato se encuentre apagado, éste no se desconectará de la fuente de CA siempre que se mantenga enchufado a la toma de corriente. Este estado recibe el nombre de “modo de espera”. En este estado, este aparato ha sido diseñado para consumir una cantidad muy pequeña de energía. De stroomtoevoer naar het toestel is niet afgesloten zolang de stekker nog in het stopcontact zit, zelfs niet als het toestel zelf uitgeschakeld is.
