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:  
1
2
Remove fuse cover and fuse.  
Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 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 3 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  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Down  
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.

8 About DAB  
About Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)  
DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcasting radio via a network  
of terrestrial transmitters. It provides listeners with more choice and  
information delivered in crystal clear, crackle-free sound quality.  
The technology allows the receiver to lock on to the strongest signal  
it can find.  
– With DAB digital stations there are no frequencies to remember, and  
sets are tuned by station name, so there’s no returning on the move.  
What is a multiplex?  
Digital radio operation is made up of a single block of frequencies called  
a multiplex. Each multiplex works within a frequency spectrum, such as  
Band III for DAB broadcasts.  
DAB BROADCASTERS AND DLS  
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex operator) also provides text and  
audio data services. Some programmes are supported by Dynamic  
Label Segments (DLS).This is data which you can read as scrolling text  
on your DAB radio display. Some stations transmit the latest news,  
travel, and weather, what’s on now and next, website addresses and  
phone numbers.
