Service and Care
AC POWER FUSE REPLACEMENT
Never replace the fuse with any other value than a one (1) amp slow blow fuse, 250V for a unit
configured to operate at 120V AC. Never use any other value than a one-half (1/2) amp slow
blow fuse, 250V for a unit configured to operate at 240V AC. The AC Power Cord must be
unplugged from the AC Power jack on the back of the unit prior to replacing the fuse. The fuse
panel can then be removed from the unit by inserting the tip of a small screwdriver into the small
tab at the top edge of the fuse panel and then pushing the panel out from the jack. The fuse is
the 5mm x 20mm type and fits into the clip inside the fuse panel. After the panel is extracted,
remove the old fuse from the mounting clip and install the new fuse in its place. Carefully slide
the fuse panel back into the AC jack assembly after inserting the new fuse. Set the unit Power
On/Off switch to the Off position and plug the AC Power cord back into the AC Power jack. Then
set the Power On/Off switch to the On position and verify proper operation. Ask your Authorized
Cary Audio Design dealer for advice if the fuse repeatedly blows.
