Maintenance

The Octopod 30 requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean. Disconnect the
mains power supply, and then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid.
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the audio connections with a damp cloth.
Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric power.

Replacing a Fuse

Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the fuse
burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, 

follow the directions below to do so.

1.

 Unplug the unit from electric power source.

2.

 Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the fuse cover. Turn the screwdriver to the left, at the same time gently

    push a bit (Turn and Push). The fuse will come out. (Fig. 5)

3.

 Remove the broken fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out.

4.

 Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse cover.

    Be sure to use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details.
