- Always ensure your AVP1 is 

disconnected from the mains/line supply 
if changing the mains/line fuse. 

 

Do not run the outputs into the inputs of 
the AVP1. 

 

Operation of the AVP1 in the vicinity of a 
strong radio frequency (RF) source 
should be countered by RF filtering on 
all inputs and outputs including the 
mains/line supply.  Any doubts or 
suspicions should be conveyed to your 
Perreaux dealer.  RF interference can 
cause serious loudspeaker damage. 

 

Always

 set the volume to -80 before 

making any connection alterations or 
when changing input sources. The 
reason for this precaution is to protect 
your loudspeakers against bursts of very 
high powered signals from a high level 
source such as a CD player. This 
Situation can arise when playing a low 
output cassette with a fairly high volume 
control setting then switching to CD 
where a high level of signal is present at 
the source input sockets. The resulting 
burst of high power may damage your 
speakers or cause damage in some 
power amplifiers. 

 

Make all connections logically and care-
fully, outputs first then inputs, checking 
that you are maintaining channel 
integrity. 

Keep all inter-linking cables and 
loudspeaker leads as far apart as 
possible and well away from all 
mains/line cables. 

 

MAINS/LINE VOLTAGE

 

 
It is important that the AVP1 be operated 
from the correct mains/line voltage. This unit 
is factory set for the voltage applicable to the 
original country of destination. The voltage 
label and switch on the rear panel indicate 
the correct operating voltage. 
The AVP1 will operate satisfactorily within a 
voltage variation of up to +/- 5% of that 
voltage at which the unit has been set. 
If you require the voltage setting to be 
altered, e.g. relocation to another area, city 
or country, or extraordinarily high or low 
voltages, contact your Perreaux dealer. 
Qualified service personnel can only 
perform this modification. 

NOTE:   Always ensure this unit is 
disconnected from the Mains/Line supply 
before any covers are removed 

  
MAINS/LINE VOLTAGE LABEL

 

The voltage label indicates the mains/line 
voltage the unit will accept.  Always check 
this setting when first installing your AVP1. A 
variance of +/- 5% above or below that 
voltage indicated is acceptable. Contact 
your Perreaux dealer for any voltage 
adjustment and updating of this label. 

NOTE:   Any modifications to the 
mains/line voltage setting within your 
Perreaux product may only be carried 
out by a qualified Perreaux service agent.  
Failure to recognise this warning will 
void any warranty.   

 
 
 
MAINS/LINE FUSE 

 

The Perreaux AVP1 is equipped with a user 
serviceable mains/line fuse situated in a 
small drawer below the mains/line-input 
receptacle. The fuse cannot be changed 
without removing the power cord. In the 
unlikely event of fuse failure always replace 
with the same type and value fuse. 

 

Remember that fuses do not usually blow 
without a reason.  Any doubts about fuse 
failure should be conveyed directly to your 
Perreaux dealer. 
The fuse rating is: 
 

100-240V  Normal Blow  500mA  

NOTE:  Always ensure your AVP1 is 
disconnected from the mains/ line supply 
before attempting to change the mains/ 
line fuse. 
 

SERIAL NUMBER

 

 
All Perreaux units are allocated a unique 
serial number, which are recorded at the 
factory against build details. If you should 
require information about your unit, 
providing the serial number will help achieve 
a prompt reply. Keep a copy of all your serial 
numbers in a safe place.  The ability to 
identify and prove ownership can be very 
useful.
