In the following, we would like to explain the use of your PA 30.3 in a comprehensive way and therefore ask you to take a little time to study this manual in detail.

1 Getting started 1.1 What’s in the box? • PA 30.3 preamplifier • Bluetooth antenna • Power cable • RC 3 remote control NOTE: After unpacking, please check the scope of delivery to ensure that all parts have been supplied and are undamaged. In case the original packing has already been opened, please contact your local dealer.
11 Ground connection for record player 19 High-level analogue input XLR 12 Phono MM / MC selector switch 20 Digital inputs (COAX, OPTO) 13 Configuration port (Firmware) 21 IR input for external sensor 14 LOAD Input for phono impedance (MC) 22 Trigger outputs (TRIGGER OUT) and capacity (MM) adjustment 23 Analog recorder output (FIX)
NOTE: Please leave the unit switched off for the time being (power switch (26) in zero position), until you have established all cable connections to the rest of the unit. NOTE: Always disconnect the PA 30.3 completely from the power supply when you make changes to the cabling.
1.11 AV Pass Through (Home Theater Loop) For integration of the PA 30.3 into a home cinema system, the PA 30.3 offers an AV Pass Through function for all high-level inputs (17,19). If this function is activated, the input signal is...

NOTE: In addition to the volume control (see section 2.5), the options for adjusting the input sensitivity (see section 2.6), the balance (see section 2.7) and all sound settings (see section 2.8) of your PA 30.3 are disabled. 1.11.1 Activating the AV Pass Through function To activate the AV Pass Through function for a high-level input (17,19), first select the desired input with the source selector (3) in normal operating mode.
If you have connected a compatible AVM power amplifier model of the MA or SA series as power amplifier, it can be switched on and off from your PA 30.3 using the RCA or XLR cable connected to one of the two analog outputs (FIX or PREAMP OUT). You do not need a separate control cable for this.

Please note the following if the remote control does not work properly: Always hold the remote control with the front end facing the device you want to operate. If the remote control is placed too far away from the device to be controlled, or if the batteries are dead or objects are placed between the remote control and the device to be controlled, the remote control may not function properly.
2.1 First power on / self test When the PA 30.3 is switched on for the first time, a self-test is performed first, provided that the unit has been completely disconnected from the power supply via the power switch (26).
Now select the PA 30.3 ("AVM-30.3") as the device for audio playback and wait a short moment until the connection is established. The display CONNECTED on the lower left side of the display (6) indicates a successful connection of both devices. In this state the device is locked for further playback devices so that the already started music playback cannot be interrupted by another Bluetooth playback device.
The PA 30.3 integrated amplifier is equipped with an energy-saving automatic power-off. If no music is played for a period of 20 minutes or no function is activated on the unit, the PA 30.3 automatically switches to standby mode. By pressing the on/off button (2) the unit can of course be switched on again at any time.
2.11 Demo-Mode The PA 30.3 integrated amplifier is equipped with a so-called Demo Mode. This demo mode is primarily intended for specialist dealers to show the respective features of the unit in the form of a 'slide show' on the display (6) while the unit is presented, for example, in a store or exhibition.
3 Appendix 3.1 Care of the housing The surface and the printing on the housing are largely scratch-resistant. The PA 30.3 can be cleaned with mild soapy water or a gentle glass cleaner and a soft duster. ATTENTION: Do not allow any liquid to enter the inside of the housing during cleaning. In addition, for safety reasons, the power cord should be disconnected before damp wiping.
3.3 Conditions of warranty (EC only) If despite expectations a defect occurs that cannot be repaired by yourself or your dealer, we undertake the repair of your unit free of charge for up to three years from date of purchase. The warranty covers the costs of material and working time, transport costs are to be borne by the owner.
