3 SAFETY WARNINGS
The installation and servicing instructions in this manual are for use by qualified personnel only.
-
Read All Instructions. All safety and operating instructions must be read before operating the product. They also
must be retained for future reference, as it contains a number of useful hints for determining the best combination of
equipment settings for Yr particular application.
-
Heed All Warnings. All warnings on the product and those listed in the operating instructions must be adhered to.
-
Heat. This product must be situated away from any heat sources such as radiators or other products (including
power amplifiers or transmitters) that produce heat.
-
Power Sources. This product must be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label and in
the installation instructions. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your facility, consult your local power
company. Make sure the AC main voltage corresponds to that indicated in the technical specifications. If a different
voltage (ex. 110/115 VAC) is available, open the equipment closure and set the voltage switch on the main supply
circuit, located behind the AC socket
-
Power Cord Protection. Power supply cords must be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on nor pinched
by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to the cords at AC wall plugs and convenience
receptacles, and at the point where the cord plugs into the product
-
Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When
a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
-
Lightning. For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the AC wall outlet and the audio connections. This will prevent damage to the
product due to lightning and power line surges
-
Installation. Configuration and installation should only be carried out by a competent installation engineer
-
Cabling. Using high quality wires, well protected. Make sure the cable integrity.
This symbol alerts you to the presence of dangerous voltage inside the closure –voltage which
may be sufficient to constitute a risk of shock. Do not perform any servicing other than that
contained in the operating instructions. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the
appliance.
Do not change the voltage setting or replace the mains fuse without first turning the unit off
and unplugging the mains cord
Make sure the AC main voltage corresponds to that indicated in the technical specifications.
THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED !
To avoid risk of fire use the correct value fuse, as indicated on the label stuck on the right
side of the unit.
This apparatus uses a single pole mains switch and does therefore not separate the unit
completely from the mains power. To completely separate from mains power (f.i. in the event
of danger) unplug mains power cord. As the MAINS plug is the disconnect device, the
disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

Conservare queste istruzioni
-
Osservare tutte le avvertenze
-
Seguire scrupolosamente tutte le istruzioni
-
Non usare questo apparecchio in prossimità di acqua
-
Non ostruire alcuna apertura per il raffreddamento. Installare l’apparecchio seguendo le istruzioni
-
Non installare l'apparecchio accanto a fonti di calore quali radiatori, aperture per l'afflusso di aria calda, forni o
altri apparecchi (amplificatori inclusi) che generino calore
-
Non rimuovere il terminale di connessione a terra sul cordone di alimentazione: esso ha lo scopo di tutelare
l’incolumità dell’utilizzatore. Se la spina in dotazione non si adatta alla presa di corrente, rivolgersi ad un elettricista
per far eseguire le modifiche necessarie.
-
Evitare di calpestare il cavo di alimentazione o di comprimerlo, specialmente in corrispondenza della spina e del
punto di inserzione sull’apparato.
-
Utilizzare solo dispositivi di collegamento e gli accessori specificati dal produttore.
-
Utilizzare l’apparecchio solo con un carrello, un sostegno, una staffa o un tavolo di tipo specificato dal produttore o
venduto insieme all’apparecchio. Se si utilizza un carrello, fare attenzione negli spostamenti per evitare infortuni
causati da ribaltamenti del carrello stesso.
-
Scollegare l’apparecchio dalla presa di corrente durante i temporali o quando inutilizzato a lungo
-
Per qualsiasi intervento, rivolgersi a personale di assistenza qualificato. È’ necessario intervenire sull’apparecchio
ogniqualvolta si verificano danneggiamenti di qualsiasi natura. Ad esempio, la spina o il cavo di alimentazione sono
danneggiati, è entrato liquido nell’apparecchio o sono caduti oggetti su di esso, l’apparecchio è stato esposto alla
pioggia o all’umidità, non funziona normalmente o è caduto.
-
Non esporre a sgocciolamenti o spruzzi. Non appoggiare sull'apparecchio oggetti pieni di liquidi, ad esempio vasi
da fiori.
Questo simbolo indica la presenza di alta tensione all'interno dell'apparecchio, che comporta rischi di
scossa elettrica.
Questo simbolo indica la presenza di istruzioni importanti per l'uso e la manutenzione nella
documentazione in dotazione all'apparecchio.
Non sostituire il fusibile o cambiare la tensione di alimentazione senza aver prima scollegato il
cordone di alimentazione. L’APPARATO DEVE ESSERE CONNESSO A TERRA.
Sostituire il fusibile generale con uno di identico valore, come indicato sulla etichetta applicata
sul mobile dell’apparato
Assicurarsi che la tensione di rete corrisponda a quella per la quale è configurato
l’apparecchio
Questo apparato utilizza un interruttore di alimentazione di tipo unipolare e l’isolamento dalla
rete elettrica non è pertanto completo. Per ottenere un isolamento totale (ad esempio in caso di
pericolo), scollegare il cordone di alimentazione. Inoltre, poichè la spina di alimentazione è
utilizzata come dispositivo di sezionamento, essa deve restare facilmente raggiungibile

8 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Your equipment was packed carefully at the factory in a container designed to protect the unit during shipment.
Nevertheless, we recommend making a careful inspection of the shipping carton and the contents for any signs of
physical damage.
Damage & Claims
If damage is evident, do not discard the container or packing material. Contact your carrier immediately to file a claim for
damages. Customarily, the carrier requires you, the consignee, to make all damage claims. It will be helpful to retain the
shipping documents and the waybill number.
Save all packing materials! If You should ever have to ship the unti (e.g. for servicing), it is best to ship it in the
original carton with its packing materials because both the carton and packing material have been carefully
designed to protect the unit.
Under normal conditions no user maintenance or calibration are required. Internal links and preset controls may be set to
configure the unit during installation. Any service work required should be carried out by qualified service
personnel only.
We are able to offer further product support through our worldwide network of approved dealers and service agents.
To help us provide the most efficient service please would you keep a record of the unit serial
number, and date and place of purchase to be quoted in any communication regarding this
product.
The actual equipment Serial Number is indicated on the silver label stuck on the rear panel of the equipment closure.
Tools And Equipment Needed
Only standard technician’s tools are required to install this equipment.

replacing the exsisting plug with the new one:
Earth
Green, or green and yellow
Neutral (N)
Blue
Live (L)
Brown
Supply cables should be laid in such a manner that one does not step or walk on them. They should not be squashed by
any objects.
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED.
The chassis is always connected to mains earth to ensure your safety: check your mains wiring and earthing before
switching on.
