When setting up
To ensure that your CPA3000 works efficiently and safely, please pay particular attention to the following issues.
ventilation
Your CPA3000 should have at least 5cm of clear space all around it to ensure a free flow of air at all times. We do not
recommend that you place CPA3000 directly on a carpet. If you have the optional integra leg system fitted it is
recommended that the power amplifiers sit above the CPA3000.
AC lead and plug
All Chord equipment comes supplied with the correct power lead and plug. This should be used at all times.
if you need to fit a plug for UK/Europe
Connect the blue wire to the neutral terminal
Connect the brown wire to the live terminal
Connect the yellow/green wire to the earth terminal
if you need to fit a plug for US/Canada
Connect the white wire to the neutral terminal
Connect the black wire to the live terminal
Connect the green to the earth terminal
earthing issues in Europe
In some European countries a hum may occur if your CPA3000 is connected to mains sockets that do not have an earth. If
this is the case please ensure that:
1. Your transport is connected via a multi-way mains block, which contains an earth point
at each socket outlet. This is to ensure that the chassis metalwork of each item is
connected together.
2. We recommend that an earthing method for your building be implemented.
3. Use the connecting points on your Chord unit and connect to an available earth point.
