Notes on Energy Saving

The MP 3100 HV satisfies the requirements of the latest directives concerning
energy-saving measures (EuP directive). The modern design of the mains
power supply makes an important contribution to this.
The internal micro-processor constantly ensures that sub-assemblies which are
not currently required are automatically switched off. The micro-processor itself
operates in stand-by mode at a relatively low clock speed, and only responds
to the remote control receiver.
In stand-by mode the current drain of the MP 3100 HV is less than 0.5 Watt.
If you intend not to use the device for a long period, it should be disconnected
from the mains socket, i.e. the mains plug should be withdrawn from the wall
socket.
The device features an automatic power-down function. If the MP 3100 HV
detects no operation or no music signal for a period longer than ninety minutes,
it automatically switches to stand-by mode. Two minutes before the device
enters the standby mode, a pop-up window appears on the screen. If the
device should stay in operation please press the  button while this
message is displayed.

In countries outside the EU, in which the EuP directive has no validity, the
automatic power-down feature can be disabled if necessary (see chapter
entitled 'Basic settings of the MP 3100 HV).
