voltage . Leave servicing to
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 .
•
Immediately disconnect the mains plug
from the socket
1 . if the unit or the mains cable is visibly
damaged,
2 . if a defect might have occurred after the

4 Setting Up
The amplifier is designed for installation into a
rack (482 mm /19"), but it can also be placed
on a table . To ensure sufficient cooling, air
must always be able to flow freely through
all air vents .

4.1 Installation into a rack

In the rack, the amplifier 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 front plate alone is not sufficient
for fixing it safely; additionally use lateral rails
or a bottom plate to secure the unit .
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 .
5 Connection
Prior to connecting /disconnecting switch off
all units concerned .
5.1 Audio source
It is possible to connect a stereo audio source
delivering audio signals with line level, e . g .
mixer, preamplifier, CD player . Connect the
output of the audio source to one of the two
pairs of jacks on the connector panel INPUT
(8), either to the XLR jacks or to the RCA jacks:
LEFT = left channel, RIGHT = right channel .
