1. INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of an Altec Lansing 1662A mic/line mixer, a professional, studio quality solution to everday mixing needs. The 1662A features six mic/line inputs with mic input pad, TRS insert points, and +48V phantom power. Each channel has up to 60dB input gain, separate treble and bass controls, level, and an output channel assign switch for sending any channel to either or both outputs. Stereo sum inputs are provided for adding typical program audio sources from DVD, CD, tape, etc. A full 11 segment LED array indicates stereo output level.

Mic/line inputs and main outputs use Euroblock connectors, allowing bare wire to be easily connected to the mixer without soldering. The 1662A mixer uses professional quality 16mm metal shaft potentiometers for greater accuracy and long life.

2. UNPACKING

As a part of our system of quality control, every Altec Lansing product is carefully inspected before leaving the factory to ensure flawless appearance. After unpacking, please inspect for any physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all packing materials , as

they were carefully designed to reduce to minimum the possibility of transportation damage should the unit again require packing and shipping. In the event that damage has occurred, immediately notify your dealer so that a written claim to cover the damages can be initiated.

The right to any claim against a public carrier can be forfeited if the carrier is not notified promptly and if the shipping carton and packing materials are not available for inspection by the carrier. Save all packing materials until the claim has been settled.

3. AC POWER REQUIREMENTS

The 1662A mixer will perform normally from 93 to 125 volts AC, 50-60Hz (some export models are wired for 240 Volts and are labeled accordingly). Use only properly grounded AC receptacles. To reduce the risk of ground loop hum, use a central point for system AC power distribution. In the event of an internal fuse failure, refer this unit to a qualified service technician for fuse replacement using only the same type fuse, 0.5A Bussman AGC-1/2 or equivalent. Power consumption is less than 20 watts.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral tri- angle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
