the AM (Medium and Long) wavebands. To solve this problem move the
aerial of the tuner or radio away from the CD player, or re-orient it for

minimum interference pickup. In extreme cases switch off the CD player

when using your tuner or radio.

Fuses

If the mains plug is fused fit a 3 amp fuse. All versions of the

Delta 70-2 and Delta 170 are fitted with an anti-surge mains fuse, rated

at 3 f 5mA for 220/240V players and 630mA for i 00/ II0/120V players.

Should a mains fuse fail, SWITCH OFF THE PLAYER AND

DISCONNECT IT AT THE WALL SOCKET. The fuse always remains live

when the machine is plugged into the mains. Remove the top plate from

the player by unscrewing the two screws at the top of the rear panel
using a No 1 ‘Posidriv’ screwdriver. Lift the top plate vertically and pull it

backwards slightly to release it. Fit a new fuse of the same type and

value in the fuse holder close to the mains inlet.

You should find a spare mains fuse in the spares kit provided

with the player or, alternatively, fitted inside the machine dose to the

mains inlet.

If the new fuse fails we recommend that you return the

player to your dealer for investigation and possible repair.

Interaction with other equipment

Although the transformers used in the Delta CD machines

have a low and well controlled level of magnetic field radiation it is
possible that they may occasionally interfere with nearby sensitive
equipment, such as the cartridge inputs of an amplifier or the replay

circuitry of a cassette recorder. This interference normally manifests itself
as a low level background hum, present when using the appropriate
equipment, but which disappears when the CD machine is turned off. If
this situation occurs and is annoying it can be eliminated by changing
the relative position of the interacting items or, in extreme cases,

switching off the CD player when other items are in use. (It may be
useful to know that the transformers in the Delta 70.2 and Delta 170 are

located to the right of the unit).

A CD player may also radiate some r.f. (radio frequency)

signals, derived from its digital circuitry. Although within statutory limits
this can cause interference with nearby tuners and radios, especially on

Disc Maintenance
Treat your CDs with care. If you always pick up a disc by its

edge and put it back in its case after use, cleaning should not be

necessary. Should fingerprints, dust or dirt appear, you can rerrrove them
with a soft, lint free cloth, wiping the disc in a straight line from centre to
edge. Breathe on the disc lightly if necessary but do not use detergent,

abrasive cleaning agents or solutions designed for use on records.

Never write on the disc label; this can cause irreparable

damage as corrosive components present in inks can etch their way
through and destroy the information layer of the disc.

Player Maintenance
Clean the cabinet, when necessary, with a soft, damp cloth.

Do not use cleaning agents containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or
abrasives. (For stubborn stains or fingermarks we have found the careful
application of ‘Windolene' to be particularly effective). Keep the disc tray
free of dust. With the exception of changing a fuse, do not attempt to

adjust or modify anything inside the player - this will void your
warranty.

In Case of Difficulty

Although the Arcam Delta CD machines have been

manufactured to the highest standards, the possibility remains that a
fault could appear. However the cause of a problem will not always be
the player - apparent faults can arise because you are not yet fully
familiar with a complex new product, or simply from faulty discs.

There follows a list of possible faults and their causes (see

pages 10-11). If you are unable to solve a problem after following our
guidelines, stop your investigation, disconnect your machine from the

mains and contact your dealer.
