6. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. 7. DO NOT USE ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON ANY CONTROLS OR SWITCHES. CONNECTIONS / SETUP: 1. AC INLET: The AC INLET (35), located on the rear of the unit, is the connector which accepts the POWER CORD (supplied) used to power the unit. 2. VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH: The VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH (38) allows the unit to operate on either 115 or 230 volt configurations, for worldwide operation. Prior to using the unit, make sure that this switch reflects the voltage supplied in your locality. 3. FUSE: Located next to the AC INLET is a 250 V FUSE (36) to protect against electrical surges. To replace the fuse, first disconnect the POWER CORD, and place a flat head screwdriver into the groove of the Fuse cap - turn it until the fuse holder is released. Simply put a new 250 V Fuse in the Fuse Holder, press down the Fuse Holder, and use a flat head screwdriver to lock it in place. 4. POWER SWITCH: The POWER SWITCH (37) turns the unit ON or OFF. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position prior to making any connections. 5. LINE 1 INPUT AND PHONO 1/LINE 1 SWITCH: This input makes it possible to connect an additional source to Channel 1 of the audio mixer portion of the unit. Plug your Phono or Line devices RCA connectors into the LINE 1 INPUT (40) and switch the PHONO 1/LINE 1 SWITCH (41) to the appropriate position. If you are plugging in a Turntable, set the switch to PHONO; if you are using a Line Level device, set the switch to LINE. 6. LINE 2 INPUT AND PHONO 2/LINE 2 SWITCH: This input makes it possible to connect an additional source to Channel 2 of the audio mixer portion of the unit. Plug your Phono or Line devices RCA connectors into the LINE 2 INPUT (42) and switch the PHONO 2/LINE 2 SWITCH (43) to the appropriate position. If you are plugging in a Turntable, set the switch to PHONO; if you are using a Line Level device, set the switch to LINE. 7. 1/4 MIC INPUT and XLR MIC INPUT: The 1/4 MIC INPUT (46) and XLR MIC INPUT (47) accept standard Lo-Z and Hi-Z microphones using either 1/4 or XLR connectors. Only one microphone should be used at once, and the MIC VOLUME LEVEL CONTROL (28) controls the level of the connected microphone. 8.
