This section explains how to set up your product in six simple steps.
1 Unpack the product
Your M80 is supplied with the following
components:
Power cord.
•
Rod antenna.
•
DAB-optimised coil antenna.
•
Wire antenna.
•
Remote control.
•
Meridian i80 iPod Dock.
•
i80 iPod Dock cable.
•
This User Guide.
•
If any of these items are missing please contact
your supplier.
We recommend you retain the packaging in case
you need to transport the unit at a later date.
Before you begin
Before you begin installation you should ensure
that your product is set to the correct voltage for
your local supply, as indicated by the label on the
back panel next to the power input.
If it is not, do not try to use the unit, and contact
your dealer.
2 Position the product
Although you can position your product almost
anywhere convenient, for best results bear the
following considerations in mind:
Avoid wet locations
The product is an electrical appliance, and so
should not be positioned in a location where it
may get splashed or wet, such as in a bathroom
or on a kitchen sideboard.
Avoid direct sunlight or carpets
The product includes a powerful amplifier, which
needs adequate ventilation. Avoid positioning the
product in direct sunlight, such as in a window, or
on a pile carpet.
3 Connect an antenna
The product includes an internal antenna, and in
areas of strong reception this will be sufficient to
receive a good signal on the DAB and FM bands.
If you do not achieve good results with the
internal antenna, you may use one of the external
antennas supplied, or connect another suitable
external (eg cable or outdoor) antenna, as follows:
Telescopic rod antenna
The telescopic antenna provides very good
reception for FM, AM, and DAB.
Attach the rod antenna to the socket marked
•
Ant. 1.
Extend it to its full extent.
•
Wire antenna
The wire antenna provides very good reception
for FM, AM, and DAB, but experiment with the
lay of the wire to get the best signal strength.
Attach the wire antenna to the socket marked
•
Ant. 1
DAB-optimised coil antenna
A UK DAB-optimised coil antenna may be
included.
Attach the antenna to the socket marked
•
Ant. 1.
Cable or external antenna
In difficult reception areas (eg some high-rise
or shielded buildings) it may be necessary or
preferable to connect an external antenna, or a
radio feed provided by a Cable supplier or in the
building infrastructure.
Attach the antenna cable to the socket marked
•
Ant. 1.
Change the antenna setting
If you have fitted an external antenna, you need
to change the antenna setting for the band you
want to use; see
15.
To set up the antennas
, page
Note: In some circumstances you may want to
use more than one external antenna to get the
best reception on two or three bands. Meridian
provides an FAQ on this subject on their website:
If the product overheats, protection circuits switch
it off until it has cooled down.
If you prefer not to have the antenna visible, the
wire antenna can be draped behind furniture, or
run up a wall.

Si l'utilisateur effectue des modifications sans
l'approbation préalable de Meridian, il peut se
voir priver du droit d'utiliser le matériel.
Avertissement du FCC
Ce matériel génère de l'énergie de fréquence
radio. En cas d'installation et d'utilisation non
conformes à nos instructions, il peut interférer
avec les communications radio ou la réception
télévisuelle et radio. Des essais sur prototype ont
établi sa conformité avec les limites définies dans
la sous-partie J, partie 15 des règles du FCC
relatives aux dispositifs informatiques de catégorie
B. Ces limites sont destinées à fournir une
protection suffisante contre les interférences dans
le cadre des installations domestiques. Cependant,
l'absence d'interférences dans le cadre d'une
installation spécifique n'est pas garantie. Si le
matériel génère des interférences nuisibles avec
la réception radio et télévisuelle, ce qui peut être
déterminé en mettant le matériel hors tension,
puis sous tension, il est recommandé à l'utilisateur
d'essayer de corriger ces interférences en
effectuant une ou plusieurs des actions suivantes :
Réorientez ou déplacez l'antenne de
•
réception.
Augmentez la taille de l'espace entourant
•
le matériel.
Branchez le matériel dans une prise d'un

Configuration du système multimédia M80
D
D
D
Cette section explique comment configurer le produit en six étapes simples.
1 Retirer le produit de son
emballage
Le système multimédia M80 est vendu avec les
composants suivants :
Cordon d'alimentation.
•
Antenne télescopique.
•
Antenne à cadre optimisée pour la radio
•
numérique.
Antenne filaire.
•
Télécommande.
•
Support Meridian i80 pour iPod.
•
Câble du support i80.
•
Le présent guide de l'utilisateur.
•
Si l'un de ces éléments est manquant, veuillez
contacter votre fournisseur.
Il est recommandé de conserver l'emballage en
vue d'une éventuelle utilisation ultérieure.
Avant de commencer
Avant de commencer l'installation, assurezvous que le voltage du produit correspond à
celui du secteur, comme indiqué par l'étiquette
située sur le panneau arrière, à côté de la prise
d'alimentation.
Dans le cas contraire, n'essayez pas d'utiliser le
dispositif et contactez votre revendeur.
2 Positionner le produit
Vous pouvez positionner le produit à l'endroit
de votre choix, mais il important de prendre en
compte les recommandations suivantes :
Éviter les emplacements humides
Le produit étant un appareil électrique, il ne doit
pas être installé à un emplacement où il serait
exposé aux éclaboussures ou à l'humidité, tel
qu'une salle de bain ou un meuble de cuisine.
Éviter de la placer à la lumière directe
du soleil ou sur de la moquette
Le produit inclut un amplificateur puissant qui
nécessite une ventilation appropriée. Évitez de
placer le produit à la lumière directe du soleil, près
d'une fenêtre par exemple, ou sur de la moquette.
Si le produit subit une surchauffe, les circuits de
protection le mettent hors tension jusqu'à ce qu'il
refroidisse.
3 Connecter une antenne
Le produit inclut une antenne interne qui s'avère
suffisante dans certaines zones de forte réception
afin de recevoir un signal de qualité pour les
bandes de radio numérique et FM.
Si vous n'obtenez pas de résultats satisfaisants
avec l'antenne interne, vous pouvez utiliser l'une
des antennes externes fournies ou connecter une
autre antenne externe appropriée (par exemple,
une antenne filaire ou extérieure), comme suit :
Antenne télescopique
L'antenne télescopique permet une excellente
réception des bandes FM, AM et de radio
numérique.
Connectez l'antenne télescopique à la prise Ant. 1.
•
Étendez-la au maximum.
•
Antenne filaire
Si vous préférez que l'antenne soit invisible, vous
pouvez placer l'antenne filaire derrière un meuble
ou le long d'un mur. L'antenne filaire permet une
réception excellente des bandes FM, AM et de
radio numérique à condition de l'orienter de façon
à obtenir un signal aussi fort que possible.
Connectez l'antenne filaire à la prise Ant. 1
•
Antenne à cadre optimisée pour la radio
numérique
Une antenne à cadre optimisée pour la radio
numérique (R-U) peut être incluse.
Connectez l'antenne à la prise Ant. 1.
•
Antenne filaire ou externe
Dans les zones où la réception est difficile (par
exemple, dans les bâtiments élevés ou blindés), il
peut être nécessaire ou préférable de connecter
une antenne externe ou un câble radio obtenu
auprès d'un fournisseur de câbles, ou d'équiper
le bâtiment d'un câble radio.
Connectez l'antenne filaire à la prise Ant. 1.
•
Modifier la configuration de l'antenne
Si vous avez installé une antenne externe, vous
devez modifier sa configuration en fonction de la
bande que vous souhaitez utiliser ; voir la section
Pour configurer les antennes
Remarque : dans certaines cas, il se peut que
vous souhaitiez utiliser plusieurs antennes externes
afin d'obtenir la meilleure réception possible sur
deux ou trois bandes. Le site Web de Meridian
propose une foire aux questions à ce sujet :
