Safety Information ⚠️
Please familiarise yourself with all safety information and instructions before use. Include all documents when passing the radio on to others.
- The apparatus must not be exposed to dripping or splashing. Do not place liquid-filled objects, such as vases, on the apparatus. If liquid is spilled, switch off at the mains immediately, disconnect the plug, and contact your dealer. Never touch the plug or radio with wet hands. Never pull the power cable when disconnecting the adapter.
- Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat (sunshine, fire, etc.).
- Using the radio in high humidity or temperatures may cause condensation and damage. Use only in moderate climates.
- Avoid extreme temperatures. Keep away from heat sources like radiators or fires. Do not place naked flame sources (e.g., candles) on the apparatus.
- The mains power adapter is the disconnect device and must remain accessible. Use only the supplied adapter and connect it to an easily accessible socket near the radio.
- Use only the Pure-supplied power supply (model GPE248-180133-Z).
- Ensure the available supply voltage matches the radio's operational voltage.
- Disconnect the radio from the power supply if not using it for an extended period (e.g., holiday).
- Always unplug the radio before cleaning. Do not use abrasive pads or cleaning solutions as they may damage the surface.
- To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove screws; there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if the remote control battery is replaced incorrectly. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
WARNING: DO NOT INGEST BATTERY, CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD. The remote control contains a coin/button cell battery. If swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in 2 hours and lead to death.
