Precautions & User Information

 

WARNING: Any modifications to this product, 
not  expressly  approved  by  Musical  Fidelity, 
who  is  the  party  responsible  for  standards 

compliance could void the user’s authority to 

operate this equipment.

 

This  new M3x  ViNYL  is  designed  and  built  to 
provide  trouble-free  performance.  As  with  all 
electronic devices it is necessary to observe a few 
precautions:

 

 

Heed all warnings shown on the back of the 
product.

 

 

Only connect the M3x ViNYL to a mains outlet 
having  the  same  voltage  as  marked  at  the 
back of the unit.

 

 

Always  ensure  that  when  disconnecting 
and  reconnecting  your  audio  equipment  the 
mains supply is switched off.

 

 

Position  the  mains  lead  and  signal 
interconnects  where  they  are  not  likely  to 
be walked on or trapped by items placed on 
them.

 

 

Do not use  near  water, or place  water-filled 
containers on the M3x ViNYL, for example, a 
flower  vase  or  potted  plants.  If  water  does 
spill inside, immediately  pull  out the  mains 
plug  from  the  wall  socket  and  inform  the 
dealer, who should then check the unit before 
further use. Entry of liquid into the M3x ViNYL 
is dangerous and may cause electric shock or 
fire hazard.

 

 

Do not place the unit near direct heat sources 
such  as  radiators,  direct  sunlight  or  other 
equipment.

 

 

Do not remove any covers or try to gain access 
to the inside. There are no user adjustments 
or fuses to change without qualification. Refer 
all  service  work  to  an  authorized  Musical 
Fidelity agent.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

The  electronics  in  modern  hi-fi  equipment  are 
complex  and  may,  therefore,  be  adversely 
affected  or  damaged  by  lightning.  For 
protection of the audio system during electrical 
storms,  remove  the  mains  plugs.  If  after-sales 
service is required, to help the dealer identify the 
M3x  ViNYL  please  quote  the  serial  number 
located on the rear panel of the unit.
