Unpacking

Save the shipping carton and polystyrene inserts so you can safely transport your C4630 SE in the future. Before you install the C4630 SE, locate the serial number on the rear panel and note it here for future reference:

S/N: _______________________

Placement

The C4630 SE should be installed at the main termination of all audio system wire and cable runs. The system’s source components (CD player, iPort™/iPod®, music server, satellite radio receiver, etc) should also be installed at this location.

The C4630 SE may be placed on a shelf in a wall unit in a media room or rack-mounted in a 19” standard equipment rack in a dedicated equipment room. When determining the location for the system components consider having access to the system for loading CDs, DVDs and other media. You should also make provisions for easy access if the components should require service.

Ventilation and Airflow

The C4630 SE must be placed in a location that will allow sufficient airflow for ventilation. Leave space above the unit, per the safety instructions, to allow the unit to “breathe” through the vent holes on the top and bottom of the unit. Blocking the vent holes will inhibit airflow through the unit and can cause damage to the C4630 SE. If necessary, install a fan to maintain enough airflow to ensure adequate convection cooling.

Be sure to leave plenty of room for wire and cable. The amount of wire used in this type of installation can quickly fill the empty space around the C4630 SE and act as a thermal insulator. This can create an undesirable thermal condition that could cause the unit to shut down. Leaving extra room for wire and cable is also a good idea if you ever want to upgrade the system or if it ever needs service.

General Placement Guidelines

•Keep the C4630 SE out of direct sunlight and away from windows that could let in rain.

•Place the C4630 SE away from heat sources such as hot air ducts or radiators.

•Do not place the C4630 SE directly on carpet that could interfere with airflow into its bottom vent openings.

•If you stack your components, it is better to place the C4630 SE above or alongside your other components. When driven hard, the C4630 SE creates heat that can affect components stacked on top of it.
