Protecting Yourself And The DD1500x-II
• Never touch the AC plug with wet hands.
• Always disconnect the DD1500x-II from the power supply by pulling on the plug, not the cord.
• Allow only an AKAI Professional dealer or qualified professional engineer to repair or reassemble the
DD1500x-II. Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch live internal parts and
receive a serious electrical shock.
• Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the DD1500x-II.
• Use only a household AC power supply. Never use a DC power supply.
• If water or any other liquid is spilled into or onto the DD1500x-II, disconnect the power, and call your dealer.
• Make sure that the unit is well-ventilated, and away from the direct sunlight.
• To avoid damage to internal circuitry, as well as the external finish, keep the DD1500x-II away from
sources of direct heat (stoves, radiators, etc.).
• Avoid using aerosol insecticides, etc. near the DD1500x-II. They may damage the surface and may ignite.
• Do not use denatured alcohol, thinner or similar chemicals to clean the DD1500x-II. They may damage the finish.
• Modification of this equipment is dangerous, and can result in the functions of the DD1500x-II being
impaired. Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way.
• In order to assure optimum performance of your DD1500x-II, select the setup location carefully, and
make sure the equipment is used properly. Avoid setting the DD1500x-II in the following locations:
1. In a humid or dusty environment
2. In a room with poor ventilation
3. On a surface that is not horizontal
4. Inside a vehicle such as a car, where it will be subject to vibration
5. In an extremely hot or cold environment
Special notes on use of the DD1500x-II
The DD1500x-II incorporates an MO disk drive. To handle the device, pay special attentions in the following points:
1. The MO disk drive is a special precision device and is very sensitive to shock or vibration. If you plan to
move the DD1500x-II by air, land, we recommend to put the unit into a shell-type case (urethanecushioned inside) that meets the ATA specifications
2. Set the DD1500x-II horizontally (within 10 degrees to the front or rear panel). Do not set the unit vertically
or in a slanted location.
3. In case the DD1500x-II is moved into a relatively warm room, etc., the laser pickup of the MO disk drive
may have condensation. In this case, do not use the unit immediately after it is turned on. Always wait for
more than one hour with the DD1500x-II turned on, until the condensation is removed. Then insert an MO
disk and start the session.
4. Set the DD1500x-II so as not to prevent its ventilation (by the fan unit on the rear panel). Also, if you rackmount the DD1500x-II with other devices, be sure to keep at least 10 cm over and under the DD1500x-II
for good air circulation.

WARNING
THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT
This equipment is fitted with an approved non-rewireable UK mains plug.
To change the fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1) Remove the fuse cover and old fuse.
2) Fit a new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp A.S.T.A or BSI approved type.
3) Refit the fuse cover.
If the AC mains plug fitted to the lead supplied with this equipment is not suitable for your type of AC outlet
sockets, it should be changed to an AC mains lead, complete with moulded plug, to the appropriate type. If
this is not possible, the plug should be cut off and a correct one fitted to suit the AC outlet. This should be
fused at 5 Amps.
If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should NOT BE GREATER than 5 Amp.
PLEASE NOTE: THE SEVERED PLUG MUST BE DESTROYED TO AVOID A POSSIBLE SHOCK
HAZARD SHOULD IT BE INSERTED INTO A 13 AMP SOCKET ELSEWHERE.
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
GREEN and YELLOW —EARTH
BLUE —NEUTRAL
BROWN —LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, please proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured GREEN and YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter E or with the safety earth symbol
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.
THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED
Ensure that all the terminals are securely tightened and no loose strands of wire exist.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain the cord grip is clamped over the outer sheath of the lead and
not simply over the wires.
