Notes on Energy Saving
General
information
The MP 8 satisfies the requirements of the latest directives concerning
energy-saving measures (EuP directive). The modern design of the
mains power supply makes an important contribution to this.
The internal micro-processor constantly ensures that sub-assemblies
which are not currently required are automatically switched off. The
micro-processor itself operates in stand-by mode at a relatively low clock
speed, and only responds to the remote control receiver.
In stand-by mode the current drain of the
MP 8 is less than 0.5 Watt.
If you intend not to use the device for a long period, it should be
disconnected from the mains socket, i.e. the mains plug should be
withdrawn from the wall socket.
Automatic
power-down
(Energy saver) The device features an automatic power-down function. If the MP 8
detects no operation or no music signal for a period longer than ninety
minutes, it automatically switches to stand-by mode. Two minutes before
the device enters the standby mode, a pop-up window appears on the
screen. If the device should stay in operation please press the

button while this message is displayed.

In countries outside the EU, in which the EuP directive has no validity,
the automatic power-down feature can be disabled if necessary (see
chapter entitled “Basic settings of the
MP 8
”).
