Important Safety Information
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your AVI250 has been designed for use
with 230 volt AC current. Connection to a
line voltage other than that for which it
is intended can create a safety and fire
hazard, and may damage the unit.
If you have any questions about the volt-
age requirements for your specific model,
or about the line voltage in your area,
contact your selling dealer before plug-
ging the unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
To avoid safety hazards, use only the
power cord attached to your unit. We do
not recommend that extension cords be
used with this product. As with all electri-
cal devices, do not run power cords under
rugs or carpets or place heavy objects on
them. Damaged power cords should be
replaced immediately with cords meeting
factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from
an AC outlet, always pull the plug, never
pull the cord. If you do not intend to use
the unit for any considerable length of
time, disconnect the plug from the AC
outlet.
Do Not Open The Cabinet
There are no user serviceable compo-
nents inside this product. Opening the
cabinet may present a shock hazard, and
any modification to the product will void
your guarantee. If water or any metal
object such as a paper clip, wire or a sta-
ple accidentally falls inside the unit, dis-
connect it from the AC power source
immediately, and consult an authorized
service center.

Installation Location
w To assure proper operation, and to
avoid the potential for safety hazards,
place the unit on a firm and level sur-
face. When placing the unit on a shelf,
be certain that the shelf and any
mounting hardware can support the
weight of the product.
m Make certain that proper space is pro-
vided both above and below the unit
for ventilation. If this product will be
installed in a cabinet or other enclosed
area, make certain that there is suffi-
cient air movement within the cabinet.
Under some circumstances a fan may
be required.
m Do not place the unit directly on a car-
peted surface.
m Avoid installation in extremely hot or
cold locations, or an area that is
exposed to direct sunlight or heating
equipment.
mw Avoid moist or humid locations.
= Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on
the top of the unit, or place objects
directly over them.
Cleaning
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a
clean, soft dry cloth. If necessary, wipe it
with a soft cloth dampened with mild
soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean
water. Wipe dry immediately with a dry
cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol clean-
ers, thinner, alcohol or any other volatile
cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive
cleaners, as they may damage the finish
of metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticide
near the unit.
Moving The Unit
Before moving the unit, be certain to dis-
connect any interconnection cords with
other components, and make certain
that you disconnect the unit from the AC
outlet.
Important Fuse and Plug Information
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 5A 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 5A.
If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse
at the distribution board should not be
greater than 5A.
NOTE: The severed plug must be
destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13A
socket elsewhere.
