Notes on Energy Saving
The
K2 Blu
fulfils the requirements of the latest directives designed to
economise on the use of energy (EuP directive). The modern construction of its
mains PSU and the highly efficient design of the
switch-mode output
stage play an important role in this.
The internal micro-processor constantly ensures that sub-assemblies which are
not required for the current task are switched off automatically.
In stand-by mode the current drain depends on the functions of the
K2 Blu
which are still active. Please refer to the table below for more details.

In accordance with EU regulations designed to limit stand-by consumption, the
default factory setting for the

is the ECO stand-by mode.

you must switch it on in the menu System Configuration / Stand.by-mode.
