We are confident that you will enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio products, the Azur 350A adheres to three core principles ­ stunning performance, ease of use and incredible value. The design of a high quality but cost-effective audio amplifier presents a major challenge. [. . . ] If you are not sure of the type of power-supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. To turn the unit off, switch off on the front panel. If you do not intend to use this unit for a long period of time, unplug it from the mains socket. Overloading Do not overload wall outlets or extension cord as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Be sure to insert each power cord securely. To prevent hum and noise, do not bundle the interconnect leads with the power cord or speaker leads. Cleaning To clean the unit, wipe its case with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning fluids containing alcohol, ammonia or abrasives. Do not spray an aerosol at or near the unit. Battery disposal Please dispose of any discharged batteries according to local environmental/electronic waste disposal guidelines. Loudspeakers Before making any connections to loudspeakers, make sure all power is turned off and only use suitable interconnects. Plug Fitting Instructions (UK Only) The cord supplied with this appliance is factory fitted with a 13 amp mains plug fitted with a 3 amp fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that a 3 amp one is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into a 13 amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should it be necessary to fit a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires should be fitted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows: The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter `N' or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter `L' or coloured RED. The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter `E' or coloured GREEN. If a 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 3 amp fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is used a 3 amp or 5 amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the distribution board. Servicing These units are not user serviceable, never attempt to repair, disassemble or reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock could result if this precautionary measure is ignored. In the event of a problem or failure, please contact your dealer. 4 azur Rear panel connections Mains Voltage Selector Switch: 115V/220-230V AC~50/60Hz 350A ENGLISH 5 5 Power AC Designed and engineered in London, England azur 350A Integrated Amplifier Tape In Rec Out Aux BD / DVD Tuner / DAB CD MP3 Rated Power Consumption: 230W www. cambridge-audio. com Left Left Right Right MP3 CD Tuner / DAB BD / DVD Aux Rec Out Tape In A Left Right B Loudspeaker Terminals 1 2 3 4 1 MP3, CD, Tuner/DAB, BD/DVD, Aux 4 Loudspeaker terminals These inputs are suitable for any 'line level' source equipment such as BD/DVD players, DAB or FM/AM tuners, CD players, MP3 players, etc. Note: These inputs are for analogue audio signals only.

[. . . ] During playback, press to toggle between track name and track time. 7 Connections Loudspeakers Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers, you can use types with an impedance of between 4 and 8 Ohms. The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker terminals are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at each speaker connector or the sound can become weak and "phasey" with little bass. Note: All connections are made using standard loudspeaker cable. Using bare wire connections Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately 10mm (3/8") or less of the outer insulation. [. . . ]
