Installation and wiring
   
Carefully unpack the unit and store the original packing material carefully. The
carton and packing are specially designed for this unit and will be needed again
if you wish to move the equipment at any time.
Please read the safety notes in these instructions.
If the unit gets very cold (e. g. when being transported), condensation may form
inside it. Please do not switch it on until it has had plenty of time to warm up to
room temperature, so that any condensation evaporates completely.
Before placing the unit on a sensitive surface please check the compatibility of
the laquer and the unit's feet on a non visible point.
The quality and characteristics of the base on which your high-quality Hi-Fi
equipment stands define the limits of sound quality which can be achieved. The
base surface should be as heavy, rigid, hard and level as possible.
The unit should be placed on a rigid, level base. When placing the unit on
resonance absorbers or anti-resonant components make sure that the stability
of the unit is not reduced.
The unit should be set up in a well ventilated dry site, out of direct sunlight and
away from radiators.
The unit must not be located close to heat-producing objects or devices, or
anything which is heat-sensitive or highly flammable.
When installing the unit on a shelf or in a cupboard it is essential to provide an
adequate flow of cooling air, to ensure that the heat produced by the unit is
dissipated effectively. Any heat build-up will shorten the life of the unit and could
be a source of danger. Be sure to leave at least 10 cm free space above the
unit for ventilation. If the system components are to be stacked then the
amplifier must be the top unit. Do not place any object on the top cover.
Mains and loudspeaker cables, and also remote control leads must be kept as
far away as possible from signal leads and antenna cables. Never run them
over or under the unit.
A complete connection diagram is shown in ' Appendix A ' .

Notes on connections:
•
Be sure to push all plugs firmly into their sockets. Loose connections can
cause hum and other unwanted noises.
•
When you connect the input sockets of the amplifier to the output sockets on
the source devices always connect like to like, i. e. 'R' to 'R' and 'L' to 'L' . If
you fail to heed this then the stereo channels will be reversed.
•
When connecting a recorder be sure to connect the IN sockets of the recorder
to the OUT sockets of the integrated amplifier, and the OUT sockets of the
recorder to the IN sockets of the integrated amplifier.
•
If the remote control module is installed connect the plug on the E 2000
remote control receiver (optionaly obtainable remote control set FBS100) to
the socket marked
RC-IN E 2000 . The E
LINK
socket of the integrated
amplifier should be connected to the E
LINK
socket of the source devices (see
' Wiring diagrams ' ).
•
To achieve maximum possible interference rejection the mains plug should be
connected to the mains socket in such a way that phase is connected to the
mains socket contact marked with a dot (
). The phase of the mains socket
can be determined using a special meter. If you are not sure about this,
please ask your specialist dealer.

We recommend the use of the  'POWER LINE' ready-to-use mains cable
and the 'POWER BAR' mains distribution panel which is fitted with a phase
indicator as standard.
When you have completed the wiring of the system please set the volume
control to a very low level before switching the system on.
Switch on the loudspeaker outlet to which your speakers are connected and
switch the integrated amplifier to the listening source which you wish to hear.
You should now hear the music.

If you encounter problems when setting up and using the integrated amplifier for
the first time please remember that the cause is often simple, and equally
simple to eliminate. Please refer to the section of these instructions entitled
' Trouble shooting ' .
