SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For your own safety and to avoid invalidation of the warranty please read this section carefully.
The
Pro
Tracker mixer must only be connected to a mains supply in the range 100-240V AC, 50-60Hz and must be earthed.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Earth:
Green and Yellow
(Green/Yellow - US)
Neutral:
Blue
(White - US)
Live:
Brown
(Black - US)
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Green and Yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol.
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter N.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter L.
Ensure that these colour codings are followed carefully in the event of the plug being changed.
The unit contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer all servicing to a qualified service engineer, through the appropriate Soundcraft dealer.
