AC MAINS SUPPLY

Your Kandy Amplifier is set to operate from a fixed supply voltage which is marked on a label next to the mains input plug. Before connecting the mains lead please check that your mains supply corresponds to this label as below:

230V Products

………………………………….Voltage Range: 220V – 240V

115V Products

………………………………….Voltage Range: 100V – 120V

The mains lead supplied with this product has an IEC mains socket that plugs into the IEC connector on the unit’s rear panel. The other end is normally attached to the appropriate mains plug for your country. In the UK this is the standard UK13A plug.

This plug should ordinarily not be removed from the lead. If you do remove it, please dispose of it safely so that it cannot be plugged into a mains socket whilst in a potentially dangerous condition. We suggest that you obtain from your dealer a complete replacement lead.

Should you move to another area where either the mains voltage or the mains plugs are different from those as supplied with your Integrated Amplifier, please contact the appointed ROKSAN distributor for assistance.

Please observe correct mains polarity at all times.

The Kandy Power Amplifier mains fuse is located on the rear panel next to the IEC mains connector. This must only be replaced by the fuse of the type and rating as described on the fuse rating label on the rear panel of the unit.

This product requires connection to electrical earth (ground). The earth wire (in the UK this is colour coded green/yellow) of the mains cable supplied with your Power Amplifier must be connected to a suitable grounding point established for this purpose by your electricity supply company. If you are in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

If the equipment is likely to be unused for some time, unplug it from the mains supply.
