Installation & Operation

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.  TERMINALS MARKED WITH        
SHOULD BE CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS LIVE AT ALL TIMES.

This amplifier operates at hazardous voltage levels.  We recommend that any work 
requiring removal of the lid be referred to a suitably qualified and experienced service 
technician. DO NOT place this amplifier in any position where liquids or any foreign 
material may accidentally enter it.

PLEASE READ & UNDERSTAND THE PRECAUTIONS WITHIN THIS MANUAL 
FOR PLACEMENT & OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT.

CONNECTIONS

Connections to your Plinius Kiokio should be made in the same order as they are 
listed in this section. DO NOT attempt to connect your Plinius Kiokio until you have 
read and fully understood these instructions. Although these instructions refer to the 
connection of a preamplifi er, the Kiokio can also be safely installed into multimedia 
systems by following the same installation guidelines. Should you require any further 
assistance, please contact your Plinius dealer.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT POWER UP YOUR AMPLIFIER UNTIL YOU HAVE 
CONNECTED YOUR INPUT/OUTPUTS CORRECTLY FOR YOUR SYSTEM.

PREAMPLIFER INPUTS

Connect your preamplifier to the input of the Plinius Kiokio using suitable single-
ended RCA or Balanced XLR interconnect cables only. If using single-ended RCA 
inputs, connect your Preamplifier to the RCA inputs on the back of the Plinius 
Kiokio.  Make sure you connect the red coded cable to the red RIGHT RCA input, 
and the black (or white) cable to the black LEFT RCA input.  Also make sure the RCA 
connectors are a snug fit and are inserted all the way in.  

For XLR input connection, make sure you connect the RIGHT XLR input and LEFT 
XLR inputs to the right and left outputs from your Preamplifier respectively. Use 
the Amplifi er Confi guration Selector switch to select RCA STEREO if you are using 
unbalanced RCA inputs or to select XLR STEREO if you are using balanced XLR inputs. 
NOTE: DO NOT connect XLR and RCA at the same time, use only one or the other.
