Parasound P 3 - Manual (Page 18)

CONNECTING THE P 3 AC POWER CORD
AC Power Connections
We recommend plugging your P 3 into the same AC outlet or power strip used for your
accompanying audio components, especially the power amplifier and source components.
What You’ll Need:
• An IEC 65 AC Cord (provided)
• An AC outlet or power strip within reach of the AC cord
Before Connecting
Remove power to all the components in your audio system.
To Connect
Plug the female end of the AC cord into the AC receptacle on the rear of the P 3.
Plug the male end of the AC cord into an active AC outlet.
AC Voltage Selection Switch
The P 3 can operate on either 110-120 Vac or 220-240 Vac operation. When you
purchased your P 3, its rear panel Voltage Selector switch was already set for
the proper voltage in your area. Nevertheless, it’s wise to double-check it
before plugging into an AC outlet.
If you move to a location with a different line voltage, you can easily convert the P 3.
For 110-120 Vac Operation: Remove the lock-out bracket with a phillips
screwdriver. Next, slide the switch toward the left until the groove on the
switch lines up with
115/60Hz . Replace lock-out bracket.
For 220-240 Vac Operation: Remove the lock-out bracket with a phillips
screwdriver. Next, slide the switch toward the left until the groove on the
switch lines up with
230V/50Hz . Replace lock-out bracket.
If you’re unsure about the correct setting for your region, please consult your
Parasound dealer or a qualified service technician.
