Hints & tips
!
When upgrading from CD72 to CD92 remember to fit the steel plate to the transformer, this
reduces noise.
!
The CDM14 mech ( part no. B2009 ) is interchangeable between the Alpha7 series and the
DiVA CD72/92 non text version.
!
Please note that the CD72/92 TEXT units use a different mech ( part no. B2012 ), the display
and main boards are also different and therefore are not interchangeable parts.
!
Voltage conversion 230/115VAC by changing the internal fuse position and fitting the correct
rated fuse. 100VAC requires a different transformer.
