Setting up step by step
2. MULTI GUARD PHASE
Using/trying out in the following order has proven effective:
1. GRID PROTECTOR not available:
at the first slot of the HiFi power strip, if necessary a second at the last slot.
2. GRID PROTECTOR available:
Slot of the HiFi power strip (e.g. last slot).
3. Try additional MULTI GUARD PHASE:
in sockets of the same phase (as the HiFi system) in the HiFi room
in sockets of a different phase (as the HiFi system) in the HiFi room
in sockets of the same phase (as the HiFi system) in other rooms near electrical devices
(in the office at the computer, at the refrigerator or stove, at the router)
in sockets of a different phase (as the HiFi system) in other rooms near electrical
devices.
It may be beneficial if all 3 phases of the domestic power grid are covered by MULTI
GUARD PHASE units.
3. MULTI GUARD EARTH
With an average load, 1x MULTI GUARD EARTH is usually sufficient for the whole
house, since the protective conductor system of all sockets is interconnected.
Using/trying out in the following order has proven effective :
1. GRID PROTECTOR not available:
at the first or second slot of the HiFi power strip,
2. GRID PROTECTOR available:
in sockets in the HiFi room or a different room.
Note: when using a MULTI GUARD PHASE or EARTH in a different room, there must be
at least one other MULTI GUARD (whether PHASE, EARTH or ROOM) in the same room
as the MASTER.
4. MULTI GUARD ROOM
They are intended for the HiFi room and their most effective location must be tested
by trying them out on various remaining sockets.
The best effect is usually achieved when the MULTI GUARDs (incl. PHASE and EARTH)
used in the HiFi room cover all the walls of the room.
Additional information
The procedure as described above is a recommendation and in most cases the most
effective variant. All variants of uses are allowed, the products are not damaged when
trying all possibilities.
To maintain its performance, the MULTI GUARD MASTER should be connected to the
grid with the 12V power supply once a year for approx. 15 minutes.
Please clean the product with a non-scratching dry duster only. Avoid using cleaning
agents.
In case of malfunctions contact your SCHNERZINGER dealer. Please do not attempt to
service the device yourself or to open it, in that case you will lose your entitlement for
our manufacturer warranty.
Enjoy listening!
5. MULTI GUARD MASTER –fine tuning
If the basic setting is not sufficient for the present interference field spectrum, two
additional power levels can be activated (switch position I and II). This requires the
permanent connection of the 12 V power supply. It should be connected to a power
circuit separate from the HiFi system - ideally even to a different power phase.
When connecting to the grid note the correct phase (marked by a silver dot on the
plug).
Measure the phase of the socket accordingly.
Listening tests of the power levels, starting with switch position I (LED on), than switch
position II (LED high).
If there is no improvement, return to basic setting.
