When installing the equipment ensure that:

the ventilation holes are not covered.

air is allowed to circulate freely around the equipment.

it is placed on a vibration free surface.

it will not be exposed to excessive heat, cold, moisture or dust.

it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

it will not be exposed to electrostatic discharges.

it is not installed vertically or tilted.

In addition, never place heavy objects on the equipment.

If a foreign object or water does enter the equipment, contact your nearest dealer or service center.

It is advisable when leaving the house, or during a thunderstorm, to disconnect the equipment from the mains supply.

WARNINGS

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

Do not remove the cover from the equipment. There are no user serviceable parts inside, and opening the case will invalidate your warranty.

Do not pull out the plug by pulling on the mains lead; grasp the plug.

Do not insert anything into the equipment through the ventilation holes.

Do not cover the ventilation holes with any items such as tablecloths, newspapers, curtains, etc. To avoid overheating do not position the SoundServer near heat sources, and ensure that the ventilation holes are not blocked.

Do not place naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the equipment.

Do not handle the mains lead with wet hands.

Allow adequate ventilation. Leave a gap of 0.1m on all sides of the unit.

Do not splash or spill water on the unit. Do not place objects filled with liquid (such as vases) on the unit.

CAUTION: This product contains a lithium battery. Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by Imerge. Dispose of batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

cd handling precautions

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the front side. Always keep the disc surface clean.

To protect the disc avoid placing it in the following locations:

-In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.

-In a place which is damp or dirty.

-In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as near a window.

Do not use a disc with a special shape

For best performance when recording from a CD try to maintain a temperature of 35°C or less in the room where the SoundServer is located.

DTS Encoded Discs

CAUTION - when playing DTS encoded CDs excessive noise will be heard on the analog outputs jacks of the SoundServer. To avoid possible damage to the audio system you should ensure that the correct connections are made to your amplification system for replaying this type of disc.

mains precautions

Your Audio Server complies with the household power and safety requirements in your area.

IMPORTANT: (for UK version only)

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1.Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2.Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A or BSI approved type.

3.Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.

If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.

Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are colored in accordance with the following code:

1.The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or colored

BLACK.

2.The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or colored RED.

3.The GREEN/YELLOW-GREEN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter “E” or

by the safety earth symbol or colored green or green-and-yellow.

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the three wires.
