[. . . ] Mains connection This video is suitable for use on A. C. Note: The mains lead of the video is fitted with a moulded plug. Because the lead is detachable and because it contains safety components we cannot recommend re-wiring. Do NOT under any circumstances plug the severed plug into any mains socket as this could result in electric shock. A fused plug must be fitted with a 3A fuse approved by ASTA or BSI to BS 1362 and fuse covers must always be securely replaced. If your Video Recorder does not work, the fuse may be blown. 3A ! The OFF button B on the remote control does not completely disconnect the unit from the mains supply but switches operating power on and off.
