Abbingdon Music Research CD-777 Precautions, On power sources, On placement, Running-In

Precautions

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits set out in the EMC Directive using a connection cable shorter than 3 metres.

On power sources

The mains power cable should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched, especially near the plug or back panel receptacle. The component should not be disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the component itself has been turned off.

If this component is not going to be used for a long time, be sure to disconnect the component from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cable, grasp the plug itself; never pull the cable.

On placement

The CD-777 will become warm during normal operation. Given this, it is imperative that the installation of the CD-777 DOES NOT interfere with its proper ventilation.

For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block the top or bottom ventilation openings; or placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through its top and bottom ventilation openings.

Do not place the component in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock. Do not place the component in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only. Do not place heavy objects on the component.

Keep the component and compact discs away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens or large loudspeakers.

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place vessels filled with liquids, such as vases, on the component.

Running-In

AMR estimates that the CD-777 may take between 300-500 operating hours for all of the internal components to be fully-broken in. Please anticipate the sonic performance of the CD-777 to settle only after it has been used for this approximate length of time.

Transporting/Moving the CD-777

Prior to any transportation/movement, ALWAYS remove the CD Clamp and transport it seperately.
