SETTING UP THE MD 308
1.
Position the receiver away from any spot which may have extremes in
temperatures.
2.
Place the receiver on a very rigid surface capable of holding 50 pounds (22 KG).
3.
The heat sinks on the side of the unit are used to keep the unit at a safe
operating temperature. It is important that they are not covered or the unit is not
installed in a closed area where there is little air circulation. Ensure at least 2” of
clearance on the left and right of the device, and 5” of clearance above the unit
to allow for proper ventilation. Further, keeping the heat sinks clean will maintain
the high level of efficiency for which they were designed. A soft cloth or
paintbrush works just fine to keep them clean.
4.
Unwrap the EIA AC cord and plug the EIA end into the rear socket marked Power
Input. Plug the other end of the AC cord into a 120/220/230/240 volt
continuous AC power supply. Be sure that the voltage marked on the rear of the
unit is the same as the AC source that you are using.
CONNECTING SPEAKERS AND POWERING THE MD 308
1.
Now that you have unpacked and positioned the MD 308 you are ready to hook it
up. Hook up your speakers to the receiver insuring that the positive (+) terminal
on the speaker is hooked up to the positive (+) output terminal on the receiver,
likewise that the negative (-) is correctly hooked up. Be sure that all the
connections are tight.
2.
Located on the rear of the unit is a switch (directly beside the AC cord input).
Turn it “ON” by depressing the top of the switch.
3.
Turn the power switch “ON”; the LED above the power switch should be on. The
center display will light up indicating which source is on.
