Service and Maintenance 

dCS

 audio products are designed not to need regular maintenance, and contain no user serviceable 

parts apart from the mains fuse. If your unit is damaged in any way, please contact your dealer. 

 

Replacing a Blown Mains Fuse 

There is a mains fuse below the power inlet, accessible from the outside of the unit.

 

If the fuse blows, 

it may be changed by the user. The current consumption of the unit is very low, so it only blows if 
power surges occur, or there is a fault in the unit. Usually power surges cause no other damage, but if 
the fuse blows repeatedly on replacement, some other damage will have been done - contact your 
dealer to arrange repair. 

Fuse type: 20 x 5mm T 1A L fuse 

!

 

If the fuse should fail, it is essential that it is replaced with one of the same type and 
rating. Failure to do so could result in damage to the unit, risk of fire or electric shock and 
will invalidate the warranty. Fuse failure is rare! 

Referring to the diagram below, remove the power cable, use your fingernails to catch the two tabs of 
the fuse holder (A), push them together to release the clips and pull the fuse holder out. Pull out the 
blown fuse from the lower position (B) and discard it. Either move the Spare Fuse (C) to the lower 
position or fit one of the fuses from the manual pack. Orient the fuse holder as shown (D) and push 
the holder back into the power inlet so that it clicks home.

Cleaning the case 

The front and back panels of your 

dCS

 equipment are machined from very high grade aluminium. 

Great care has been taken to create the finish of the aluminium throughout the engineering process 
from the raw solid material to the finished piece. 

To remove loose dust or finger marks from the case, we recommend that you use a clean, dry, lint-
free cloth. 

To restore the finish, we recommend applying small quantities of a lanolin based cleaner, using a 
clean, dry, lint-free cloth and then wiping off. Do not allow lanolin to collect around the buttons. 

Small amounts of glass cleaner containing ammonia may be used to clean other surfaces, but avoid 
spraying onto the connector contacts.
