IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 

CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. 

DO NOT OPEN 

 
 

 
 

 

 
 

WARNING:  Apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective 

earthing connection. 
 

WARNING:  To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the rack in accordance with the 
installation instructions. 

 
Read these instructions. 

 
Keep these instructions. 

 
Heed all warnings. 

 

Follow all instructions. 
 

Do not use this apparatus near water. 
 

Clean only with a dry cloth. 
 

Do not block any ventilation openings, install in 
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 

 
Do not install near any heat sources, such as 

radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus 
(including amplifiers) that produce heat. 

 
Protect the power cord from being walked on or 

pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles 
and the pint where they exit from the apparatus. 

 

The mains circuit breaker shall remain readily 
accessible. 

 
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the 

manufacturer. 
 

Use only with the cart, tripod, bracket or table 
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the 

apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when 
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury 

from a tip over. 
 

Disconnect this apparatus during lightning storms or 
when unused for a long period of time. 

 

  Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 

Servicing is required when the

 

apparatus has been 

damaged in any way, such as if the power-supply cord 

or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects 
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been 

exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, 

or has been dropped. 
 

Do not expose this equipment to dripping or splashing 
and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as 

vases, are placed on the equipment. 
 

To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC 
mains, disconnect the power cord from the mains circuit 

breaker. 
 

Where the amplifier is mounted in a rack and 
permanently connected to the mains, then the rack 

should be installed with a readily accessible connector 
or an ALL POLE circuit breaker with 3mm breaking 

distances. 
 

This unit is fitted with a 3-wire power cord. For safety 

reasons, THE EARTH LEAD SHOULD NOT BE 
DISCONNECTED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. 

 
The cooling fans suck cool air in through the front and 

blow hot air out at the rear of the unit through the 
ventilating grills. The front and rear of the amplifier 

should have free exposure to the air (i.e. in a rack leave 
the front and rear doors off), with 2cm air gap at the 

sides and top. IF AIR IS NOT ALLOWED TO ESCAPE 
FROM THE REAR, OVER-HEATING WILL OCCUR. Take 

care when mounting other equipment in the same rack. 
 

The mains switch on the amplifiers only switches one 
pole of the mains supply, therefore for units with a 

detachable cord to be fully disconnected from the 

mains, the mains disconnect device (ie mains plug or 
mains coupler) should remain readily operable.  For 

units with a fixed mains lead the external all pole circuit 
breaker with 3mm breaking distances is the disconnect 

device and therefore the installation of the amplifier 
shall be carried out in accordance with all the applicable 

installation rules. 
 

 
 
 

 

The lightning flash with arrowhead 

symbol within an equilateral triangle is 
intended to alert the user to the presence 

of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” 
within the products enclosure that may 

be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a 
risk of electric shock to persons. 

The exclamation point within an 

equilateral triangle is intended to alert 
the user of important operating and 

maintenance (servicing) instructions in 
the literature accompanying the 

appliance.
