the battery gets empty during operation, or the device is switched to Standby, or AC Mains operation. Charging
the battery may also be enforced in the Setup Menu.
If the device is not going to be used for a long time, the batteries must be fully charged at least every six months

GND LIFT switches
The ground lift switches, located on the back panel of the Power Block, can eliminate unwanted hum and buzz
(50/100 Hz) by interrupting the ground loops between two devices. Ideally only the source device remains
grounded and on the preamplifier and power amps. are the ground switches set to GND LIFT. You can try also
other combinations and then leave on the set up with the best result.
