Safety instructions
The product must NOT:
- be plugged one behind the other
- be operated in a covered manner
Use is only permitted in dry rooms.
Dear customer,
Thank you for your purchase of a SCHNERZINGER product.
Please take the time to precisely read the information in this guide. You
will find important instructions to use your product and hints for the
optimal integration into your Hi-Fi system.
This guide facilitates your use of the product, promotes understanding
its functional characteristics and helps you to obtain the full efficiency
of the product.
We hope you enjoy your new SCHNERZINGER product.
Please clean the product with a non-scratching dry duster only. Avoid
using cleaning agents.
A potting compound in the devices protects the innovative GIGAHERTZ
CANCELING technology with its particular electrical components
specially manufactured for SCHNERZINGER against direct access and
screening via X-ray or magnetic field applications. A slight rustling
caused by this potting compound is normal and does not result in any
functional impairment. There are no informed crystals in the devices.
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.
In the case of damages at the power plug or power cable please initiate
an exchange at SCHNERZINGER via your dealer.

OPERATOR
The OPERATOR is a mains strip for up to 8 resp. 12 devices, ensuring a new quality of full speed processing of current pulses, thanks to
the SCHNERZINGER ATOMIC BONDING formatting processes.
The OPERATOR is optionally available:
- with a fixed bidirectional operating power feed
- with an IEC power socket
The OPERATOR does not provide protection against electrical interference fields - this function is carried out by:
OPERATOR PROTECTOR –interferences resulting from the domestic power grid
POWER GUARD –interferences resulting from the domestic power grid, radiating into the direct environment
The use of a CABLE PROTECTOR relates to the protection of the cable; it does not substitute the use of an OPERATOR PROTECTOR or
POWER GUARD.

BIDIRECTIONAL BARRIER
Thanks to ATOMIC BONDING-formatted conductor material, all SCHNERZINGER POWER PRODUCTS transmit even the highest current
pulse peaks at full speed.
In addition, the OPERATOR forms a bidirectional barrier when used in conjunction with an OPERATOR PROTECTOR or POWER GUARD:
-external interfering fields radiating from the power grid or the cables are blocked
-Internal electrical interfering fields caused by the Hi-Fi devices themselves are not transferred to other Hi-Fi devices but dissipated
outwards.
Each SCHNERZINGER product can be used on its own. But using SCHNERZINGER products throughout will result in a closed system in
which the bidirectional effect remains uninterrupted.
This includes the use of SCHNERZINGER POWER CORDS with CABLE PROTECTOR.

Connecting the NEW INNOVATOR to the power grid
A silver dot shows the correct phase of the plug of the fixed bidirectional
operating power feed, for proper connection measure the phase of your
socket.
In case of an OPERATOR without a SCHNERZINGER power feed system it‘s
absolutely recommended to use a current SCHNERZINGER POWER CORD as
power feed, so that the bidirectional mode of action will not be interrupted.

Connecting the Hi-Fi components
When operating a GROUND PROTECTOR, it’s recommended to connect it to the first socket of the OPERATOR (from the view
of the power feed). Use further sockets in the following sequence:
1. POWER GUARD (if available)
2. Analogue sources and other analogue devices in die sequence of signal flow
3. Digital sources and other digital devices in die sequence of signal flow
4. Power amplifier
Last socket POWER GUARD BOOSTER (if available)
Please note that the phase is always marked by a silver dot.
It is absolutely recommended to use SCHNERZINGER POWER CORDs for the connection of the components. Thus the
operating principles of SCHNERZINGER technology will be consistently supported and not broken (ATOMIC BONDING,
bidirectional barriers, homogeneous conductor material, aligned and processed plugs and a special connection technology).
Especially via other manufacturer cables electrical interfering fields could penetrate into the system. Using SCHNERZINGER
POWER CORDs this is not possible.
For SCHNERZINGER POWER CORDs of different quality grades, the following allocation is usually recommended: the best
quality grade for the power amplifier, then digital devices and finally analogue devices.

Setting up a SCHNERZINGER system
Recommendation for the first setting resp. resetting of several SCHNERZINGER components:
1. Step:
Connect all components
- with the power circuit, if required (see manual)
- with the Hi-Fi devices (GROUND, GIGA GUARD, SPEAKER AMP)
2. Step:
Set all switches at all components to basic setting (switches to position 0).
3. Step:
Test each component one after the other for its optimal setting according to the manual, with the following configuration
sequence:
CABLES, GROUND PROTECTOR, GRID PROTECTOR, POWER GUARD, OPERATOR/NEW INNOVATOR, SPEAKER AMP PROTECTOR,
EMI PROTECTOR, GIGA PICCOLO PROTECTOR, GIGA GUARD, GIGA PROTECTOR
If you add your device to an already existing SCHNERZINGER chain, outstanding results will be obtained mostly when all
devices will keep their former settings and just the additional product will be installed and configured as described in its
manual.
If this does not provide satisfactory results, we recommend a complete system resetting.
