skilled personnel only and do
not insert anything into the air
vents . Inexpert handling may
result in electric shock .
•
The unit is suitable for indoor use only . Pro-
tect it against dripping water and splash
water, high air humidity and heat (admissi-
ble ambient temperature range: 0 – 40 °C) .
•
Do not place any vessel filled with liquid on
the unit, e . g . a drinking glass .
•
The heat generated inside the unit must be
dissipated by air circulation; never cover the
air vents of the housing .

No guarantee claims for the unit and no
liability for any resulting personal damage
or material damage will be accepted if the
unit is used for other purposes than orig-
inally intended, if it is not correctly con-
nected or operated, or if it is not repaired
in an expert way .
If the unit is to be put out of oper-
ation definitively, take it to a local
recycling plant for a disposal which
is not harmful to the environment .
4 Setting Up
The amplifier can be set up on its own or
installed in a rack for units with a width of
482 mm (19") . To ensure sufficient cooling,
air must always be able to flow freely through
all air vents .

4.1 Installation into a rack

Screw the two mounting brackets provided
to the sides of the unit . In the rack, the am-
plifier requires a height of 2 RS (1 RS = rack
space = 44 .45 mm) . To prevent the rack from
becoming top-heavy, insert the amplifier into
the lower section of the rack . The mounting
brackets alone are not sufficient for fixing it
safely; additionally use lateral rails or a bottom
plate to secure the unit .
The hot air given off by the amplifier must
be dissipated from the rack; otherwise, heat
will accumulate in the rack which may not
only damage the amplifier but also other units
in the rack . In case of insufficient heat dissi-
pation, install a ventilation unit into the rack .
