FOREWORD

This section must be read carefully before any connection is made to the mains supply.

WARNINGS

EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING

Your Marantz product has been prepared to comply with the household power and safety requirements that exist in your area.

IMPORTANT: (FOR UK version only)

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Ampere plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3. Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A.

Note :

The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.

HOW TO CONNECT A PLUG

The wires in the mains lead are colored in accordance with the following code: BLUE—“NEUTRAL” (“N”) BROWN—“LIVE” (“L”)

GREEN-and-YELLOW —”EARTH” (“E”)

1. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or colored BLACK.

2. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or colored RED.

3. Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol or colored green or GREEN-andYELLOW. Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead — not simply over the two wires.

Recording and playback of some material may require permission. For further information refer to the following:

- Copyright Act 1956

- Dramatic and Musical Performers Act 1958

- Performers Protection Acts 1963 and 1972

- Any subsequent statutory enactments and orders

Do not expose the equipment to rain or moisture. Do not remove the cover from the equipment. Do not push anything inside the equipment through the ventilation holes. Do not handle the mains lead with wet hands.

• Unplug the projector from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for a few days.

• When the switch is in the OFF position, the apparatus is NOT disconnected from the AC supply mains.

• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

Note: Pixel defects

DMD

(Digital Micromirror DeviceTM) is one of the most advanced technologies for consumer products. The DMD

made by high precision technology, however some pixel defects may be found on the projected image. We are trying our best to control the quality in order to reduce the number of defective pixels. It is almost impossible to have zero pixel defects, even using the most advanced technology. This is not a problem only for Marantz, but all DLP

projector manufactures. Therefore we have to note

that the warranty does not cover the DMD

for pixel

defects. We appreciate your understandings.

Note: Lamp

SHP lamp is one of the most advanced technologies for consumer products. The lamp made by high precision technology, however some lamps might be failing before it reaches its life. And projector’s brightness is getting darker along with accumulated lamp usage hours. We are trying our best to control the quality in order to reduce lamp failures. It is almost impossible to have zero failure, even using the most advanced technology. This is not a problem only for Marantz, but all projector manufactures. Therefore we have to note that the warranty does not cover the SHP lamp for lamp failures: explosion, and nonlighting except initial use. And also we have to note that the warranty does not cover the SHP lamp for lamp failures: flickering, and getting darker along with accumulated lamp usage hours. We appreciate your understandings.
