* lower than 4 Ω (DIN measurement).

It is very important to ensure that the terminals are tightly screwed down, and that there are no stray cable strands which could produce a short-circuit at the speaker terminals.

Standard insulated 4 mm ”banana plugs” can also be fitted in the transverse holes in the speaker terminals. If you do this, please fit the plugs from the underside!

The  accessory range includes a wide range of high-quality cables which are accurately matched to the requirements of equipment.

TV

Input / output socket for connecting a television set or screen monitor / projector featuring a SCART connector. For monitors and displays with different sockets please use a suitable adaptor; they are readily available in electrical accessory shops.

This socket can provide picture signals in the form of Composite (FBAS), RGB or optionally YUV Norm. The appropriate setting must be selected in the disc player 'Player Setup Menu'.

Sound signals are also present at this socket, which means that you can copy material to video recorders by this means.

The Scart socket also carries the sound signals from the connected TV set to the K1 AV, so that you can reproduce the television sound via your K1 AV.

RC IN (E2000)

Input socket for the E2000 remote control receiver for the adjacent room (supplied as standard).

RLINK

Control output for connecting  equipment with the RLINK control system.

It is also possible to connect METZ televisions to this socket; the TV set must be prepared for this, and a suitable adaptor (MT Interface) also has to be used. Once set up in this way, these TV sets can also be controlled using the F6 remote control handset.

Setting up the K1 AV:

Carefully unpack the machine and store the original packaging materials carefully. The carton and packing are specially designed for this unit and will be needed again if you wish to move the equipment at any time.

Please be sure to read the safety notes in these instructions, and observe all the information regarding setting up the machine.

If the unit gets very cold (e.g. when being transported), condensation may form inside it. Please do not switch it on until it has had plenty of time to warm up to room temperature, so that any condensation evaporates completely.

Before placing the unit on a sensitive surface, please check the compatibility of the lacquer and the unit’s feet at a non-visible point.

The K1 AV should be set up on a rigid, level base. Make sure that the machine is absolutely stable in its installed position.

It should be set up in a dry, well-ventilated site, out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. It must not be located close to heat-generating objects or devices, or anything which is heat-sensitive or highly inflammable.

Make sure that cooling air can flow freely to and from the unit: the cooling slots in the case must not be covered or obstructed.

It is also essential to leave at least 5 cm free space to both sides of the machine and behind it, and at least 15 cm free space above it, to allow the generated heat to escape.

If you set up the machine on a shelf or in a piece of furniture, please note that any doors must not be closed in front of it, as heat will build up in the enclosed space. This will shorten the useful life of the machine, and could be a source of danger.

:Any heat build-up will shorten the life of the unit, and could be a source of danger.

If you encounter problems when setting up and using the K1 AV for the first time, remember that the cause is often simple, and equally simple to eliminate. Please refer to the chapter of these operating instructions entitled 'Trouble- shooting'.
