Installation and Security Advices

Please Read this Important Note:

Be very careful to check that the rear chassis power selection switch is set to the correct local line voltage position (either 230 or 115 volts) before using your machine!

Before connecting any equipment make sure that any machine to be connected is turned off (on the Volume2 rear panel the power switch must be pushed down).

Turning the Volume 2 on and off: The Volume 2 should always be the first to be turned on before either power amp or active loudspeaker. In powering down the reverse should take place (first turn off amps/speakers followed by the Volume 2). In connecting any cables be sure that the Volume 2 and all machines affected are turned off.

It makes good sense to think about where you place the unit before connecting it. It should be positioned so that you can easily reach it, but there are other considerations. Try not to place it near heat sources or in direct sunlight, and avoid exposure to excessive vibrations, dust, heat, cold or moisture. It should also be kept away from transformers, motors, power amplifiers and digital processors.

• Do not open the case. You may risk electric shock and damage to your equip- ment.

•Leave repairs and maintenance to a qualified service technician. Should foreign objects fall inside the case, contact your authorized dealer or support person.

•To avoid electric shock or fire hazards, do not expose your unit to rain or moisture.

•If the danger of lightning is foreseeable, unplug the unit. Never touch a power cable during a thunderstorm—danger of life!

•Always unplug the cable by pulling on the plug only; never pull on the cable.

•Never force a switch or knob.

•Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the case. Avoid cleaning agents as they

may damage the unit. if necessary, use an acid-free cleaning oil instead.

Power Supply

 

The power supply was carefully engineered to provide clean and consistent current – an important prerequisite for excellent audio. Built around a toroidal transformer, the power supply generates a minimal electromagnetic field with no hum or mechanical noise. The output side is filtered by an RC circuit to extract noise and hums inherent in commercial AC power.

All audio-related components are fed by two separate voltage regulators to minimize disturbance from other components.

An AC power cord is included for connection to the standard 3-prong IEC connector. The transformer, power cord and IEC connector are VDE, UL and CSA approved. The AC fuse is rated at 250 mA (230 V version) or 500 mA (115 V version).
