Check that your mains supply voltage
agrees with the voltage setting indicated
on the rear panel of the unit.
If your mains supply voltage is different,
consult your Arcam dealer.
MAINS SAFETY
This product is normally supplied with a
moulded mains plug already fitted to the
lead. If for any reason the plug needs to
be removed,
it must be disposed of
immediately and securely, as it is a
potential shock hazard when inserted into
a mains socket.
If the plug is removed then the remaining
lead must be rewired as follows:
The blue wire must be connected to the
terminal which is coloured blue or
marked with the letter N.
The brown wire must be connected to
the temiinal which is coloured brown or
marked with the letter L.
The green and yellow wire must be
connected to the terminal which is
coloured
green and yellow, or marked
with the letter E or the safety earth
symbol.
When replacing the fuse in the supplied
moulded mains plug, the integral fuse
holder/cover must always be refitted.
Warning: This apparatus must be
earthed.
MAINS SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
Insert the lEC line socket of the mains
lead fully into the power inlet on the rear
panel. Connect the other end to your
mains supply.
Insert the red plugs into the red sockets
and the other plugs into the black
sockets. If your speaker cable has bare
ends, the positive conductor can usually
be identified by a ridge or coloured
marking.
Ensure that no stray strands are allowed
to touch another cable or the amplifier's
casing. This can cause a short circuit and
damage your amplifier!
