WARNING!
• These are NOT HOT-SWAPPABLE drives! The unit must be hard powered down before
removing the QuickSwap drive.
• Never unlock the QuickSwap Bay to remove the drive from the AudioReQuest until it
has spun down completely (10 seconds). Just because you cannot hear it spinning does
not mean that it has completely stopped.
• Never take apart the QuickSwap Drive as it voids the warranty.
• Always transport the QuickSwap Drive in its original box provided with the anti-static
foam. This will reduce the risk of damage to the drive.
• Always be careful when setting the drive down on any surface. Impact is the number
one cause of head misalignment and corrupted drives.
• Always lock the hard drive into place before powering up the unit.
Ask your dealer for more information about AudioReQuest’s Multi-Zone and Multi-Location

1.3.1 Back Panel Connections
The back panel of your AudioReQuest houses all the connection ports you will need to
connect to a variety of other devices. Note: Layout may vary based on model. F.Series is
shown.
1.3.2 Connecting AudioReQuest to a Stereo Receiver
CAUTION: TO ENSURE SAFE CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE THAT BOTH THE
AUDIOREQUEST AND YOUR STEREO RECEIVER ARE TURNED OFF! NEVER CONNECT
THE AUDIOREQUEST AND YOUR STEREO RECEIVER WHILE EITHER UNIT IS
TURNED ON! LEAVING EITHER UNIT ON WHILE CONNECTING THE TWO MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS, IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO BOTH UNITS!
To connect your AudioReQuest to your stereo receiver, first choose the type of connection
that you’d like to use: Digital Coaxial, Optical Toslink, or Analog Stereo. Attach your cable
to the appropriate output jack on the back of the AudioReQuest unit. Connect the other end
of the cable to your CD or Auxiliary (AUX) input on your stereo receiver.
