MOON AIR Analog FM Tuner
Operating the AIR
Making the AC Connection
1.
Connect the supplied AC power cable to the IEC receptacle, located on the rear panel of the tuner’s
chassis. Alternatively, if you wish, you may use a dedicated high-performance AC cable designed
for source components. Ensure that the AC wall outlet you use has a functioning ground. For the
best sonic performance, it is preferable that you plug your MOON AIR Analog FM Tuner directly
into a dedicated AC outlet and avoid using an extension cord.
2.
In order to obtain the maximum performance from your audio system, we strongly recommend that
the detachable power cord not come into physical contact with any of the interconnect cables
running to and from your AIR. In the event that this can’t be avoided, you should ensure that any
cables coming into contact with each other are crossed at ninety degree angles to minimize the
contact area.
Turning on your MOON AIR for the first time
Prior to turning the tuner on for the first time, make sure that every cable is properly connected to
avoid any problems. Then turn on your tuner in the following manner:
1)
Flick the main rocker switch labeled “POWER” to the ‘1’ (on) position on the rear of the AIR.
2)
Press the push button labeled “Stand by/On” on the center of the front faceplate. The blue LED will
illuminate and the digital display will indicate a tuned station frequency.
On and Off Sequence
To avoid having any annoying noises (ie. “thumps” and “pops”) eminate from your speakers when
powering your AIR on or off, you should
1)
Always power up your AIR before powering up your preamplifier and/or amplifier.
2)
Always power down your AIR after powering down your preamplifier and/or amplifier.
We recommend that you leave your MOON AIR Analog FM Tuner powered up at all times to
maintain optimal performance. In the event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days,
powering off the tuner may not be a bad idea. Once fully “broken-in”, please keep in mind that your
AIR will require several hours of playing time before it reaches its peak performance after you’ve
powered it up again.
