INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

The MC-12 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal performance. Pay particular attention to instructions below and to other precautions that appear throughout this user guide.

DO install the MC-12 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or shelf. The MC-12 can also be installed in a standard 19-inch equipment rack using an optional rack-mount kit available from an authorized Lexicon dealer.

DO select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.

DO NOT expose the MC-12 to high temperatures, humidity, steam, smoke, dampness or excessive dust. Avoid installing the MC-12 near radiators and other heat-producing appliances.

DO NOT install the MC-12 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable TV decoders, or other RF-emitting devices that might cause interference.

DO NOT place the MC-12 on a thick rug or carpet, or cover the MC-12 with a cloth, as this might prevent proper cooling.

DO NOT place the MC-12 on a windowsill or any location exposed to direct sunlight.

DO NOT obstruct the front-panel IR receiver window. The remote control must be in line of sight with the IR receiver for proper operation.

DO NOT install the MC-12 on a surface that is unstable or unable to support all four feet, unless it is installed in an equipment rack.

DO NOT stack the MC-12 directly above heat-producing equipment such as a power amplifier.

CAUTION!

Before moving the MC-12, power the unit off using the rear-panel power switch and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
