The standard 2 metre mains cable supplied with the unit is fitted with an IEC type connector which can be
plugged directly into the POWER IN socket on the rear panel.
The mains fuse is housed within the POWER IN socket. When replacing the fuse the unit should be
disconnected from the mains supply.

local Distributor before proceeding further.
Fuse Rating: 2A 'F' (fast blow type)
NOTE: The unit should be positioned within 1.5 metres of an earthed mains supply.

is correct.

so that the correct voltage is visible through the aperture in the fuse holder. Replace the fuse retainer in its
holder, fit the correct fuse and push assembly back into the power input socket.
