USER MANUAL AZ1018 PHILIPS

Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 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 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.
• 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 12 ) 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.

PHILIPS 6 x 1.5V R14/ UM2/ C CELL

Make sure you remove the plug from the set and wall socket before inserting batteries.

For users in the U.K.: please follow the instructions on page 2.

Batteries (not included)

1 Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R-14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+" and "-" symbols inside the compartment.
2 Close the compartment door, and make sure the batteries are firmly and correctly in place. The set is now ready to operate. → If BATT LOW lights up, battery power is running low. The BATT LOW indicator eventually goes out if the batteries are too weak.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly.

Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst. Therefore:

• Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same type for the set.
• When inserting new batteries, do not try to mix old batteries with the new ones.
• Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time.

Using AC Power

1 Check if the mains voltage, as shown on the type plate located on the bottom of the set, corresponds to your local mains supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or service centre.

Line drawing of an electrical outlet connected to a device labeled 'AC MAINS' (no text or symbols on the diagram itself)

2 Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS inlet and the wall socket. The power supply is now connected and ready for use.

3 To switch off completely, unplug the mains lead from the wall socket.

- Unplug the mains lead from the wall socket to protect your set during heavy thunderstorms.

The type plate is located on the bottom of the set.

Switching power on/off: Save energy

Whether you are using mains or battery supply, to avoid unnecessary energy consumption always adjust the POWER slider to TAPE/OFF and check if the cassette keys are released.

• Do not expose the set, batteries, CDs or cassettes to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Do not cover the set. Adequate ventilation with a minimum gap of 6 inches between the ventilation holes and surrounding surfaces is necessary to prevent heat build-up.
• The mechanical parts of the set contain self-lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated.
• To clean the set, use a soft, slightly dampened chamois leather. Do not use any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia, benzene or abrasives as these may harm the housing.

Tape deck maintenance

To ensure quality recording and playback of the tape deck, clean parts A, B and C shown in the diagram below, after approx. 50 hours of operation, or on average once a month. Use a cotton bud slightly moistened with alcohol or a special head cleaning fluid to clean the deck.

  • Use only Digital Audio CDs.
• Always close the CD door to keep the CD compartment dust-free. To clean, dust the compartment with a soft dry cloth.
• To take a CD out of its box, press the centre spindle while lifting the CD. Always pick up the CD by the edge and replace the CD back in its box after use to avoid scratching and dust.

• Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
