The Best Place To Put The CD-3000
The best operating location for the CD-3000 CD duplicator is in a climatecontrolled area, free of dirt, dust, humidity, excessive heat, and electronic or
electromagnetic interference. Room temperature should be between 65 and
75 degrees Fahrenheit, or between 18 and 23 degrees Celsius. Place the CD3000 on a solid, steady work surface, and allow sufficient room for all
incidental work materials. Provide at least six inches of clearance on all
sides of the unit for ventilation.
Safety Precautions
The system is shipped with a three-prong power connector, and must be
used with a properly grounded AC receptacle. DO NOT try to defeat the
third “ground” prong. All computer peripherals must be properly grounded,
and the CD-3000 is no exception. The use of a power conditioner, such as
an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or a surge protector, is highly
recommended. The minimum required size is 500VA.
Document Revision: 030501.1
Document Revision: 100102
Repairs or alterations should only be attempted by authorized, factorytrained technicians. MediaFORM reserves the right to void the warranty if
unauthorized service is performed.
