Connecting to the power outlet

(European model only)

Connect the supplied power cord to a wall outlet.

(USA/Canadian model only)

The supplied power cord has a 3-pronged grounded plug. If you are using a 3-pronged grounded outlet, the plug can be inserted directly into the outlet. However, if the socket is a 2-pronged grounded outlet, use the supplied AC power plug adapter or a commercially available AC power plug adapter.

If noise (hum) is produced

Noise may be caused by an electrical potential difference on the ground circuit*. In this case, use the supplied AC power plug adapter and be careful not to connect the ground lead to anything.

*Although the ground of the domestic outlet is normally a safety ground, a slight electrical potential difference may be produced, depending on the outlet. Therefore, use of the supplied 3-pronged power cord may lessen the quality of the audio signal or may produce humming noise.

Note

We recommend that you connect this unit directly to a wall outlet. If you must use a multi-outlet tap, or extension cord, be sure to use one capable of handling high current (at least 10 A) or one designed for office use.
