General  
Fuse  
Do not allow this unit to be exposed to moisture (e.g. dripping or  
splashing) or to temperatures exceeding 70 degrees centigrade. 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.  
This apparatus must be protected by a 3A fuse (BS1362) in a 13A plug  
(BS1363). If another type of plug is used a 5A fuse should be fitted in  
the plug, adaptor or distribution board.

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 time and alarm settings will be retained during a temporary failure  
of the AC mains supply. The LED display will not be operational. The  
display will be extinguished to conserve battery life, but the memory will  
retain details of the time and alarm time settings.  
The correct style of plug to suit your household together with a correctly  
rated fuse should be fitted.
