General
Do not allow this unit to be exposed to water or steam. Do not
leave the unit where excessive heat could cause damage. It is
recommended that the FM band be used wherever possible as
better results in terms of quality and freedom from interference
will usually be obtained than on the MW band.
Mains supply
The CR966 will operate from a supply of AC 230 volts, 50Hz
only.
For your convenience this product is supplied with a plug which
is fitted with a fuse of the appropriate rating. If the plug supplied
is not suitable for your socket outlet, it should be removed by
unscrewing the plug top, the terminal screws, and removing the
cable.
The correct style of plug to suit your household together with a
correctly rated fuse should be fitted.
IF IN DOUBT - CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN

terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the safety earth
symbol or coloured Green or Green-and-yellow.
