SAVE THE PACKAGING

Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your C 426 arrived. 
Should you move or otherwise need to transport your C 426, this is by far 
the safest container in which to do so. We’ve seen too many otherwise 
perfect components damaged in transit for lack of a proper shipping 
carton, so please: Save that box!

CHOOSING A LOCATION

Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to both 
sides and behind), and that will provide a clear line of sight, within 23 feet/7 
meters, between the C 426’s front panel and your primary listening/viewing 
position—this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications. 
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near sources of heat and damp. 
It is perfectly possible to stack the C 426 on top of other components.

QUICK START

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your 
new C 426, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to get you 
underway. 

Please make all the connections to your C 426 with the unit unplugged. It is 
also advisable to power down or unplug all associated components while 
making or breaking any signal or AC power connections.

Use the RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the left and right output of the 
C 426 to the tuner input of your amplifier.

Connect AM and FM antenna.

Connect the supplied AC cord to the C 426 AC mains input and then 
plug into an AC outlet. The Standby LED indicator embedded around 
the bezel of the STANDBY button will illuminate amber.

Plug the AC mains plug also of your amplifier into the AC outlet. Power 
up your amplifier and set it to the tuner input where the C 426 is 
connected.

Press the front panel STANDBY button to turn ON the C 426. The 
Standby LED indicator will turn from amber to blue and illuminate the 
VFD.

Toggle front panel’s [FM/AM] button to select AM or FM band.

Toggle front panel’s [PRESET/TUNE] button to switch between “Preset” 
and “Tune” mode. Select TUNE mode (“TUNE” scrolls through the VFD).

Rotate the [PRESET/TUNE] control knob to select desired station.
