INSTALLATION  CONSIDERATIONS

UNPACKING

When unpacking your player: 

•  Save all packing materials in case you need to ship your 

player in the future.  

•  Inspect your player for signs of damage during shipment. If 

you discover damage, contact your authorized Mark Levinson 
dealer for assistance in making appropriate claims. 

•  Please register your audio player within 15 days of purchase 

at marklevinson.com. 

•  Retain your original, dated sales receipt as proof of warranty 

coverage.

•  Remove the accessory box from the shipping carton. Make 

sure that all of the items listed below are included. If any are 
missing, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer.

o  IEC power cord (terminated according to the region to 

which the unit is shipped)  

o  WiFi Antenna

o  Remote control with preinstalled batteries

o  Phillips screwdriver (for replacing remote batteries)

o  Pair of white gloves (for use during unpacking and 

initial setup)

o Documentation

PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION 

•  Install the player on a shelf in an open rack, to ensure proper 

ventilation.

•  Ensure that you install the player on a solid, flat and level 

surface. 

•  Install the player as close as possible to associated audio 

components to keep interconnecting cables as short as 
possible. 

•  Select a dry, well-ventilated location that is out of direct 

sunlight. 

•  DO NOT expose the player to high temperatures, humidity, 

steam, smoke, dampness, or excessive dust.

POWER REQUIREMENTS  

The player is configured at the factory for 100, 115, or 230 VAC 
power operation at 50Hz or 60Hz. Before operating, ensure that 
the power label on the rear panel near the AC input connector 
indicates the correct operating voltage. A detachable IEC power 
cable intended for use in the region where the unit is sold is 
included. 

Connection to an AC voltage other than that for which the 
unit is intended can create a safety and fire hazard and may 
damage the unit. If you have any questions about the voltage 
requirements for your preamplifier or about the line voltage in 
your area, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer before 
plugging the unit into an AC power outlet. 

WARNING! MAKE SURE all components in the audio 

system are properly grounded. Do NOT defeat the 

safety purpose of polarized or grounding-type 

plugs with “ground-lifter” or “cheater” adapters. 

Doing so may cause dangerous voltage to build 

up between components, which may result in 

personal injuries and/or product damage. 

You should unplug the audio player from the AC wall outlet during 
lightning storms and extended periods of non-use. 

CAUTION: BEFORE moving the unit, make sure it is powered off 
by removing the power cord from the AC power outlet and the 
unit’s rear panel.

ORIGINAL ANTENNA 

The unit’s Wi-Fi antenna cannot be replaced with an alternate. 
Use of any other antenna is not covered by warranty, may result 
in degraded performance, and may violate regulations in your 
country. If you damage or misplace the antenna, replace it with 
Mark Levinson/HARMAN part number 480-18521.

A NOTE ABOUT WIFI AND BLUETOOTH 

CONNECTIVITY

Installation factors can affect the range and performance of 
the WiFi and Bluetooth radios. Make certain that the unit is 
not blocked by metal cabinets or shelving and that it is within 
the recommended range of the wireless router to which it is 
connected. While it is not necessary for normal operation, 
maximum range of up to 50ft (15m) for Bluetooth connections 
can be achieved with line-of-sight connections to the BT receiver 
antenna located on behind the front panel display window.
