Care of the
unit
Notes on connections:
• Be sure to push all plugs firmly into their sockets. Loose connections
can cause hum and other unwanted noises.
• When you connect the sockets of the AMP 8 to the sockets on the
connected devices always connect like to like, i. e. 'R' to 'R' and 'L' to 'L'.
If you fail to heed this then the stereo channels will be reversed.
• This device is intended to be connected to a mains outlet with
protective earth connector. Please only connect it with the mains cable
supplied to a properly installed mains outlet with protective earth
connector.
• To achieve maximum possible interference rejection the mains plug
should be connected to the mains socket in such a way that phase is
connected to the mains socket contact marked with a dot ( ). The
phase of the mains socket can be determined using a special meter. If
you are not sure about this, please ask your specialist dealer.
If you encounter problems when setting up and using the amplifier for the
first time please remember that the cause is often simple, and equally
simple to eliminate. Please refer to the section of these instructions
entitled "Trouble shooting".
Always disconnect the unit from the mains supply before cleaning it.
The surfaces of the case should be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth
only.
Never use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners!
Before switching the unit on again, check that there are no short-circuits
at the connections, and that all cables are plugged in correctly.
