INSTALLATION
Your AMC Amplifier is set to work on your
local mains supply voltage. Check that your
local mains supply voltage agrees with the
voltage setting indicated on the back panel
of the amplifier. If not, please contact your
dealer or national distributor for details on
how to proceed further.
The cores of the mains lead are colored in
accordance with the following code:
Blue-Neutral
Brown
-Live
Note:
Export units for certain markets have
molded mains plugs fitted as standard.
As the colors in the mains lead may not
correspond with the colored markings
identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
The wire which is colored blue must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
by the letter N, or colored black or blue. The
wire which is colored brown must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
by the letter L, or colored red or brown.
FUSES
If the mains plug is fused, fit a 5 amp fuse.
Your AMC receiver contains fuses which are
designed to protect the amplifier and
prevent the unit from the occurrence of a
dangerous fault condition. These should
only be inspected and replaced by a
competent engineer using the correct
replacement types.
