Mains supply and safety
Important notice to UK users
Mains Supply:
8000Q: 220-240V: 100-120V
8000M: 220-240V: 100-120V
8000P: 220-240V: 4 100-120V
Power Cord:
The mains voltage of Audiolab units is shown on the rear
panel. If this does not match the voltage in your area, consult your dealer.
The mains supply fuse is on the rear panel. If it has broken, check for any
obvious cause before replacing the fuse with one of the correct rating and
type.The fuses for allareasare type T (timelag) AL 20mm.
Thefuse values are:
1.0A : 1.6A
3.15A : 5.0A
.0A : 5.0A
The fuse is located in a slide-in
carrier which also contains a spare
fuse. The carrier can only be pulled
out after the IEC power cord is
unplugged. When the carrier is
opened the first fuse is the spare.
Remove and safely dispose of the
blownfuse before replacing it.
Class II construction double insulated. These products must not
beconnected to earth.
An AC power cord is normally supplied with a mains plug
suitable for your area. If you have any doubts, consult your dealer about
obtaininga suitable power cord.
The appliance cord is terminated with a UK approved mains plug fitted
with a 5A fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved
BS1362 fuse rated at 5A must be used. If you need to change the mains
plug, remove the fuse and dispose of this plug safely immediately after
cuttingit from the cord.
