f) Main fuses
NOTICE
Make sure you check whether the main fuses installed in your amplifier (see Figure 2-1
Rear panel - Connections, Pos. (f)) correspond to your local mains nominal voltage and if
necessary, replace them as described in Section 6.3 Fuse Replacement!
WARNING
If your amplifier is only fitted with one line (mains) fuse, it is suitable for European
Community ONLY. 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.
g) Power cord
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 (see Figure 2-1 Rear panel - Connections, Pos. (g)) a standard mains supply
plug which meets the Safety Class I unit standard in your country.
The ground lead of the amplifier's power 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.
h) Preparation of wall outlet
WARNING
Before connecting the amplifier to your mains supply using a licensed electrician, check
that the supply is correctly wired, and is adequate for power consumption up to
3500 VA. Make certain that the grounding lead is connected properly and that it has a
cross section not less than the cross section of the phase conductor 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
2.5 mm² (AWG 13 or SWG 15) at operating 200-240 VAC or 100-120 VAC, (recommended values if there are
no stricter requirements by your local standard).
Check that the panel fuse has a free capacity for the additional load from the amplifier as specified in
Sections 6.3 Fuse Replacement and 7.1.i) Mains Power Consumption. If you connect the amplifier to a different
mains outlet, be sure that you check it, too.
