Service and Maintenance

dCS audio products are designed not to need regular maintenance, and contain no user serviceable
parts apart from the mains fuse. If your unit is damaged in any way, please contact your dealer.

Replacing a Blown Mains Fuse

There is a mains fuse below the power inlet, accessible from the outside of the unit. If the fuse blows,
it may be changed by the user. The current consumption of the unit is very low, so it only blows if
power surges occur, or there is a fault in the unit. Usually power surges cause no other damage, but if
the fuse blows repeatedly on replacement, some other damage will have been done and the unit must
be returned to dCS for repair.
Fuse type: 20 x 5mm T 0.5 amp L fuse
If the fuse should fail, it is essential that it is replaced with one of the same type and
!
rating. Failure to do so could result in damage to the unit, risk of fire or electric shock and
will invalidate the guarantee.
Referring to the diagram below, remove the power cable, use a small flat bladed screwdriver to pry up
the tab on the fuse carrier (A) and pull it out. Push the blown fuse out of the clip in the carrier (B) and
dispose of it. Fit a new fuse in the clip (C) and push the carrier back into the unit so that it clicks home.
Spare fuses are provided with the unit.

Cleaning the case

The front and back panels of your dCS equipment are machined from very high grade aluminium.
Great care has been taken to create the finish of the aluminium throughout the engineering process
from the raw solid material to the finished piece.
To remove loose dust or finger marks from the case, we recommend that you use a clean, dry, lint-
free cloth.
To restore the finish on the front and back panels, we recommend applying small quantities of a
lanolin based cleaner, using a clean, dry, lint-free cloth and then wiping off. Do not allow lanolin to
collect around the buttons.
Small amounts of glass cleaner containing ammonia may be used to clean other surfaces, but avoid
spraying onto the connector contacts.
