User manual ARCAM CD33

[. . . ] Climate The appliance has been designed for use in moderate climates. Racks and stands Only use a rack or stand that is recommended for use with audio equipment. If the equipment is on a portable rack it should be moved with great care, to avoid overturning the combination. Cleaning Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning. [. . . ] We recommend high quality cables as inferior quality cables will degrade the sound quality of your system. Please contact your Arcam dealer for details of suitable cables. MAINS LEAD The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already fitted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your Arcam dealer. AUDIO OUTPUTS Connect these to your amplifier's CD or any other line-level input using suitable high quality interconnect cables. Ensure that the left and right audio outputs from the CD player are connected to the same left and right inputs on your amplifier. The second set of sockets can be used to connect to a second amplifier set up for multi-room use. PLUGGING IN Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the socket (POWER INLET) in the back of the unit. Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on. COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTPUT Use this socket if you are using a separate digital to analogue converter (DAC) or digital recorder. Connect to the DAC or recorder's digital input using a suitable 75 screened cable. CAUTION: Never connect the digital output socket to a conventional audio input. OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT Use this socket if you are using a separate DAC or digital recorder with an optical connection. Connect using a suitable optical cable.
