[. . . ] Assemble the device in such a way that the available ventilation openings are not covered. Should the device become damaged, in particular the mains supply cable, do not operate the device any longer, but rather have it repaired by an expert. For safety reasons a broken or damaged mains lead may only be replaced by an equivalent lead from the manufacturer, our customer service department or a similary qualified person.

The stereo control light (25) beneath the adjustment knob only lights up when you have selected VHF stereo and receive the station in stereo quality.
