ELECTROCOMPANIET EMC 1, Owner'S Manual

Page: 15 / 86

Important Notice
For optimal sonic performance, the EMC 1 should be burned in for a minimum time of 72 hours.
The easiest way to burn in your EMC1 is to put a disc in REPEAT mode with the rest of
your system turned off.
In daily operation, switch off the CD Player by using the STANDBY button on either the
remote control or on the front panel.
If the CD Player has been switched off by the MAINS button on the rear panel, allow two
hours of warm-up to optimise sonic performance.
Due to high class A operation in all Electrocompaniet designs, it is normal for the CD
Player to feel warm. Proper ventilation is important. The CD player should by no means be
completely covered.
A good rule of thumb is to allow at least 3 – 5 cm (1 - 2 inches) of air sidewise, and 5 – 8
cm (2 - 3 inches) above the CD Player.
Please refer to Owner’s Manual for removal of the CD transport screw. The transport screw
must be removed for proper operation.
When moving the CD Player. Always re-insert and tighten the transport screw to avoid
severe damage to the unit!!!
