Installation Of Optional Fan - Acom 2000R Operating Manual

Do not connect to the connector, marked INTERFACE a "standard" cable because
this may result in damage in both - amplifier or connected equipment. In order to
use PC, a special cable must be prepared. Contact your dealer or see TECHNICAL
SUPPLEMENT for details.
i) Mains plug and fuses.
If your amplifier is only fitted with one mains fuse, it is suitable for 0-220/
240 VAC electricity supplies ONLY (these supplies are standard in the
European Community). Your dealer will check that your amplifier is correctly
fused before it is shipped to you. Customers should check with a qualified
electrician if the amplifier is to be used outside the country in which it was
purchased.
Due to the different standards in different countries, the mains plug is supplied and mounted by the
dealer. He connects to the mains cord end a standard mains plug which meets the Safety Class I units
standard in your country. The ground lead of the amplifier's mains cord is colored yellow with two
green stripes and the blue and brown leads are active. When the amplifier is to be used with only one
mains fuse, it is connected in series with the brown lead which must be the active. If you have any
doubts about the correct way of connecting the wires, consult your dealer.
j) Preparation of wall outlet for the amplifier.
Before connecting the amplifier to your mains supply, be sure that the supply
is correctly wired, and is adequate for the current drawn by the amplifier.
Make certain that the grounding lead is connected properly in the wall
outlet for the amplifier.
It is preferable that you use the wall outlet closest to the source. The installation leads should be at least
2.5mm (AWG 13 or SWG 15). Check if the respective fuses can handle current up to 20A, as well as if
2
the voltage corresponds to the voltage for which the amplifier is set (S.2-2). If you connect the amplifier
to a different mains outlet, be sure that you check it, too.
Make sure the main Power Switch on the front panel is in OFF position (so that the red strip on the
switch is hidden) and insert amplifier's mains plug into the wall outlet prepared for it. The amplifier
remains switched off.
