1VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH

The PV®215D has a voltage selector switch to allow switching between an input power voltage range from 100VAC to 120VAC to a range from 220VAC to 240VAC, all at either 50 or 60 cycles per second (Hz). It should be set to the proper voltage for your country out of the box. However, world conditions are such that some areas have power line voltages differing from the voltage used by the majority of any given locale.

Be sure to check the position of the voltage selector switch to see that it matches the power line voltage used locally. If it does not match, then to change the voltage to the correct one, follow the steps outlined below.

Changing the Voltage Range of the PV®215D

First, make sure the PV® 215D is disconnected from the power line, and that the power switch (3) is in the OFF position.

Second, unscrew the screws holding the clear switch protector on the voltage selector switch (1) just a little, just enough to allow removal of the clear switch protector. The screws DO NOT need to be unscrewed very far.

Third, remove the clear plastic protector from the voltage selector switch.

Fourth, using a small flat blade screwdriver, push the red selector switch slide plate to the other side from where it was. The voltage that is now visible on the red slide plate is the one you have selected.

Fifth, replace the clear plastic protector underneath the two loosened screws, and tighten one down while holding the clear plastic protector in place. Tighten the other screw down, and make sure both screws are tight.

Sixth, the fuse should be changed to the correct amperage rating. For an input power voltage range from 100VAC to 120VAC, use a 6.3 amp rated, 250V 5 x 20 mm cartridge type time-delay fuse, which conforms to the international fuse classification “T6.3AL”. For an input power voltage range of from 220VAC to 240VAC, use a 3.15 amp rated, 250V 5 x 20 mm cartridge type time-delay fuse, which conforms to the international fuse classification “T3.15AL”.

The IEC power cord that is correct for your locale can now be plugged into the IEC receptacle (2), and the Power switch (3) activated to turn on the powered PV®215D speaker system.

2IEC POWER CORD CONNECTION

This receptacle is for the IEC line cord (normally supplied with the correct pins and wiring for your locale) that provides AC power to the unit.

Please read this guide carefully to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your equipment. Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not
