Unpacking and Placement

Unpack your Nº380 Preamplifier and keep all packing materials for fu-
ture transport. Locate and remove all accessory items from the cartons.
Accessories include:
1 90 shielded AC power cord
1 Nº380 remote control
2 alkaline batteries
Included with your new Mark Levinson product is a pair of knit, white
gloves designed to assist you in the initial unpacking and placement of
your new purchase. Please accept them as a token of our appreciation
for having purchased one of our products.

Using the supplied ⁄ " Allen key, remove the two screws in the bottom
64
end cap of the remote control (i.e., the end opposite the IR transmitter
lens). Insert the two alkaline batteries found in the Accessories box, be-
ing careful to follow the polarity indications given on the inside of the
battery compartment. Replace the end cap and the screws, using the
Allen key.
If at some point you notice that your remote control seems not to be
performing as well as it once did, its batteries are probably running low.
Check the batteries periodically, and replace batteries before they are
"dead." (Fully discharged batteries are prone to leaking corrosive chemi-
cals—the greenish "gunk" you may have seen around battery terminals of
other remote controls.)
The Nº380 should be placed close to your source equipment, thus
keeping interconnect cabling short. We strongly recommend shelf
mounting to allow for proper ventilation.
The Nº380 is designed for continuous operation, which is why it fea-
tures a mode rather than a full "off " mode—it is designed to
standby
be connected to the AC mains at all times for the best performance.
Be sure to allow 3 to 4 inches of clearance above the Nº380 to allow
heat dissipation through air circulation.
Drawings are included in this manual to facilitate special installations
and custom cabinetry (see "Dimensions").
