DTS encoded discs

Caution - when playing DTS encoded CDs excessive noise will be heard on the analogue outputs jacks of the Digital Music Server. To avoid possible damage to the audio system you should ensure that the correct connections are made to your amplification system for replaying this type of disc.

MAINS PRECAUTIONS

Your Digital Music Server complies with the household power and safety requirements in your area.

IMPORTANT: (for UK version only)

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A or BSI approved type.

3Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.

If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.

NOTE: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

1The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.

2The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured RED.

3The GREEN/YELLOW-GREEN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter “E” or

by the safety earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow.

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the three wires.
