2 – Safety Review 

 

 

WARNING: High Voltage – Risk of electric shock 

 

Do not open chassis. 
Ensure that the correct voltage (115V/230V) is selected before connecting the 

comp.two

 to the main power supply.  

If the device is damaged or does not work as expected, refer to qualified service staff 
only. 
Never use damaged power chords.  
Replace fuse with the same type and value : T 1 A (115V); T 500 mA (230V) 
Ensure that the 

comp.two

 is connected via a grounded connection. 

Keep away from moisture and other liquids.  
Do not use the 

comp.two

 close to water or in wet surroundings.  

 

CAUTION: Temperature – Chassis may become hot during operation 

 

Do not install any heat sources (for instance radiators or stoves) close to the device.  

 

 Avoid direct solar irradiation.  

 

 Do not block the circulation vents. Warm air must exhaust. 

Leave enough free rack-spaces around the compressor to avoid overheating.  
Do not install power amps near the device.  

 

 

WARNING: Incorrect installation – Connection may cause damage  

 

 

 Do not connect power amp-outputs to the 

comp.two

Install the device only on flat surfaces or mount it properly into an adequate rack. 

 

WARNING: Condensed water (liquid) may cause damage 

 
Condensation inside the device may occur, when you move the device from a cold 
place to a warm room. To avoid damaging the 

comp.two

, always wait until the 

device has reached room temperature before switching it on. 

 

WARNING: High sound volume may harm the sense of hearing

  

 

 This device produces a maximum amplification of 32 dB. Set input and output 
 controls on zero position before monitoring the sound via headphones or 
 loudspeakers. 
 

Gradually increase the volume levels for input and output. 
 

HINT: Delayed operation  

 

The 

comp.two

 uses vacuum tubes, therefore the device will be on standby for 

several seconds after switching it on.
