Mains supply and safety
Important notice to UK users
Mains Supply:
Power Cord:
The mains operating voltage of all Audiolab units is
shown on the rear panel. If this does not match the voltage in your area,
consult your dealer.
The mains supply fuse is located on the rear panel of the unit. If it has
broken, check for any obvious cause before replacing the fuse with one of
the correct rating and type. The fuse values are:
220 - 240V (UK, Korea, etc.) T 2.5AL 20mm Slow Blow
100 - 120V (USA, Japan, etc) T 4.0AL 20mm Slow Blow
The fuse is located in a slide-in
carrier which also contains a spare
fuse. The fuse carrier can only be
pulled out after the IEC power cord is
unplugged. When the carrier is
opened the first fuse to be seen is the
spare fuse. Remove and safely
dispose of the fuse with the blown
link before replacing it.
Class II construction double insulated. This product must not be
connected to earth.
An AC power cord is normally supplied with a mains plug
suitable for your area. If you have any doubts, consult your dealer about
obtaining a suitable power cord.
The appliance cord is terminated with a UK approved mains plug fitted
with a 5A fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved
BS1362 fuse rated at 5A must be used. If you need to change the mains
plug, remove the fuse and dispose of this plug safely immediately after
cutting it from the cord.
Connecting a Mains Plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the code:
Blue: NEUTRAL; Brown: LIVE:
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The BLUE wire must be connected
to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured BLUE or
BLACK. The BROWN wire must be
connected to the terminal marked
with the letter L or coloured
BROWN or RED.

Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug.
A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wider blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of
the obsolete outlet.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long
periods of time.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required
when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-
supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have
fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this
product to rain or moisture. The product must not be exposed to dripping
and splashing and no object filled with liquids such as a vase of flowers
should be placed on the product.
No naked flame sources such as candles should be placed on the
product.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this device.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digitial device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by tuning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
Re-orientate or re-locate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation
between the equipment and the receiver. Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The batteries supplied with this unit should be treated
with care and not punctured or damaged. Used batteries should be
disposed of in full conformity with recycling regulations in your area.
NEVER dispose of batteries in a fire or in the general rubbish.

Power Amplifier Protection Circuits
Short Circuit Protection:
DC Offset Protection:
Thermal Protection:
If the output terminals are connected together or there
is a short caused by a faulty speaker or connecting lead, the amplifier will mute and
un-mute until the fault condition is removed.
If there is an internal or external fault which may cause DC
voltage to be presented to the loudspeaker, the amplifier will mute and stay muted
until the fault is removed.
If the amplifier is driven excessively for long periods, or the
output devices are pushed beyond their safe operating area, the amplifier will
switch off and then switch back on again when it has cooled down.
In all cases, if the amplifier does not respond to remedial action, consult your dealer.
