Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to moisture or water. Do not allow foreign objects to get into the enclosure. [. . . ] Such furniture is designed to reduce or suppress vibration which can adversely affect sound quality. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer for advice about component furniture and proper installation of audio components. The RA-1060 is supplied with an RR-AT92 remote control and must be placed where the infrared signal from the remote can reach the front panel Remote Sensor. Audio Controls The RR-AT92 duplicates the basic audio functions of the RA-1060 front panel. When a function is available on both the front panel and the remote, a number (see front panel illustration) and a letter (see remote control illustration) are shown in the instructions. For example, to change the volume level, you can on the front panel either turn the control on the remote. When or use the buttons only one identifier appears, that control is available only on the front panel or the remote, but not both. CD Functions The PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, TRACK +/­, RANDOM buttons, and NUMERIC keys (0-10) operate many Rotel CD players after the CD button on the remote has been pressed. DVD Functions The PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, and TRACK +/­, buttons operate Rotel DVD players, after the AUX1 button on the remote has been pressed. 7 English Tuner Functions The BAND, TUNING, and additional tuning feature buttons operate Rotel tuners, after the TUNER button on the remote has been pressed. By default, the RR-AT92 operates the Rotel RT-955 tuner. Alternatively, the remote can be reprogrammed to operate the RT-940AX tuner. This programming only needs to be done once: To program for the RT-940AX: press the POWER button and the 2 button simultaneously. To program for the RT-955: press the POWER button and the 1 button simultaneously. Speaker Outputs See Figure 2 The RA-1060 has two sets of speaker outputs, labeled SPEAKER A and SPEAKER B. The speaker outputs are controlled by the switch on the front panel. Speaker Connections Turn off all the components in the system before connecting the speakers. The RA-1060 has color-coded speaker connectors on the back panel. These connectors accept bare wire, or connector lugs. (In non-EC markets, the connectors also accept dual banana plugs. ) Route the wire from the RA-1060 to the speakers. Give yourself enough slack so you can move the components to allow access to the speaker connectors. Your authorized Rotel dealer can help in the selection of cables for your system. To use the remote, aim it at the remote sensor on the front panel of the RA-1060. NOTE: Remote Control Batteries Two UM-4/AAA size batteries (supplied) must be installed before the remote control can be used. To install the batteries, remove the cover on the back of the RR-AT92. Install the batteries as shown in the illustration in the battery well. Test the control for proper operation, then replace the cover. When the batteries become weak the remote control won't operate the RA-1060 consistently. Installing fresh batteries should eliminate the problem. Signal Connections The RA-1060 has line level inputs for source components, connections for audio tape decks, and preamp output connections to send signals to an external power amplifier. NOTE: To prevent loud, potentially damaging, noises, make sure the system is turned off when you make any signal connections. Polarity and Phasing The polarity ­ the positive/negative orientation of the connections ­ for every speaker and amplifier connection must be consistent so all the speakers will be in phase. If the polarity of one connection is reversed, bass output will be very weak and stereo imaging degraded. [. . . ] A: The speakers connected to the SPEAKER A terminals will be heard. B: The speakers connected to the SPEAKER B terminals will be heard. A+B: The speakers connected to both the SPEAKER A and SPEAKER B terminals will be heard. Fuse Replacement If another electrical device works when plugged into the power outlet, but the power indicator still will not light when the RA-1060 is plugged into the wall outlet, it indicates that the internal power fuse may have blown. If you believe this has happened, contact your authorized Rotel dealer to get the fuse replaced. RECORDING Selector The RA-1060 can record from any input source (except TAPE 2) to a recorder connected to TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 outputs. [. . . ]
