EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING

Your Marantz product 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:

1Remove fuse cover and fuse.

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

3Refit 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 coloured in accordance with the following code:

BLUE - “NEUTRAL” (“N”) BROWN - “LIVE” (“L”)

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

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

3Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter “E” or by the safety

earth symbol or coloured 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 two wires.

COMPACT DISCS

The glossy side shining like a rainbow is the front side of the disc, and the side on which the label is printed is the back.

Unlike conventional turntables for playing analogue discs, the DH9300 Music Server reads the information recorded on the disc from underneath without contacting it using a beam of laser light. Therefore, the performance of a compact disc will not degrade like conventional analogue records.

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the front side.

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.

Always keep the surface of the disc clean.

Up to six billion data units are recorded on the front side of the disc. When cleaning the disc surface always be sure to use a special compact disc cleaner. Do not use a conventional record cleaner for analogue records, as this will adversely affect the disc surface.

Store discs properly by placing them in their disc cases.

Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the label side of the disc.

When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD label with paste protruded from the edge or when a disc has a trace of such a sticky object, do not attempt to play the disc. If such a disc is inserted into the Music Server it may cause extensive damage to the system. It may also be impossible to remove the disc.

Do not use a disc with a special shape.

Do not attempt to use a disc with a special shape such as a heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc. This may cause the system to malfunction.

DTS encoded discs

Caution - when playing DTS encoded CDs excessive noise will be heard on the analogue outputs jacks of the Music Server. 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.

CAUTION

When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental regulations or environmental public instruction’s rules that apply in your country or area.

POWER BUTTON

When this button is pressed once, the power turns On and information will appear on the display. When pressed again, press the Off action key or the 3 key on the remote control to switch to Off mode.

When the unit is in Off mode the “Standby” indicator is lit; the apparatus is not disconnected from the AC mains supply in this mode.
