En Introduction WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. WARNING RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN AVIS RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). [. . . ] This mode keeps the heat down, as opposed to when the integrated amplifier is used as a pre-main amplifier. This is an example of connection using the power amplifier M-5000R. Important: • In this mode, SPEAKERS cannot be used. • To use this mode, you need to change the “ROUTE” setting (➔ page 39). Integrated Amplifier A-9070 Power Amplifier M-5000R En 23 Separating the Pre-amp and Main Amp Units You can use the integrated amplifier’s pre-amp and main amp units individually (Split mode) to connect a sound processor such as a graphic equalizer between the pre-amp and main amp units. Important: • Always turn the integrated amplifier off before connecting the MAIN IN jacks. • To use this mode, you need to change the “ROUTE” setting (➔ page 39). Integrated Amplifier A-9070 L INPUT R L OUTPUT R e. g. , graphic equalizer Note • Depending on the sound processor used, noise may be produced upon switching the integrated amplifier on and off. In this case, turn on each device in the following sequence: sound processor, integrated amplifier. Turn off each device in the following sequence: integrated amplifier, sound processor. En 24 Using the Integrated Amplifier as a Power Amplifier Combined with a preamplifier of your choice, the integrated amplifier can be used as a power amplifier (Main mode). When it is selected, the MAIN IN LED lights. See “Connecting Your Speakers” for connection information (➔ page 13). This is an example of connection using the preamplifier P-3000R. Important: • Always turn the integrated amplifier off before connecting the MAIN IN jacks. • Before setting the integrated amplifier to Main mode, make sure that no component such as a CD player is connected to the MAIN IN jacks, as a direct connection may cause a massive blast sound and damage the integrated amplifier or your speakers. • This mode can be used with the following limitations: – The volume level can’t be adjusted. – Only SPEAKERS and SETUP can be used. – Only the MAIN IN and SPEAKERS terminals can be used. – The Auto Standby function is not available (➔ page 38). • To use this mode, you need to change the “ROUTE” setting (➔ page 39). Preamplifier P-3000R Integrated Amplifier A-9070 En 25 Turning On & Basic Operations Basic Operations Turning On/Off the Integrated Amplifier 8ON/STANDBY 8 Turning On the Integrated Amplifier ■ Operating with the remote controller Turning Off the Integrated Amplifier ■ Operating with the remote controller 1 Press 8. The integrated amplifier comes on, and the information display lights. 1 Press 8. The integrated amplifier enters Standby mode and the information display goes off. ■ Operating on the integrated amplifier ■ Operating on the integrated amplifier 1 Press 8ON/STANDBY. The integrated amplifier comes on, and the information display lights. 1 Press 8ON/STANDBY. The integrated amplifier enters Standby mode and the information display goes off. Tip • After showing the volume level from the last session, the message “MUTING” flashes on the information display until the speakers or headphones become active. [. . . ] • Make sure that no video content is being played. • Reset the iPod. Remote Controller The remote controller doesn’t work properly. • Make sure the batteries have been installed with the correct polarity (+/–) (➔ page 7). • Replace both batteries with new ones. (Do not mix different types of batteries or new and old batteries. ) • The remote controller is too far away from the integrated amplifier, or there’s an obstacle between them (➔ page 7). [. . . ]
