MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
Service and Maintenance
dCS audio products are designed not to need regular maintenance, and contain no user serviceable
parts apart from the main fuse. If your unit is damaged in any way, please contact your dealer or dCS.
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.
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 any warranty.
Replacing a Blown Fuse
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.
Obtaining Service
The original manufacturer's warranty for all P8i units has expired. This upgrade is being supported as
a service repair, with a parts & labour warranty term that will be set when either your unit is upgraded
for you or an upgraded unit is sold on a pre-owned basis. Service warranties are not transferable, and
do not cover shipping charges or tax/duty.
Should you encounter a problem, contact your authorised dCS dealer or national distributor for advice,
quoting the model (P8i Mk2), the full serial number, software version number, and giving a detailed
description of the fault. Your dealer will advise you fully on actions that need to be taken. When
returning a unit, the original packaging should be used to avoid transit damage. Replacement
packaging sets may be purchased from dCS.
