DO NOT remove the top cover from this amplifier. Hazardous voltages are present. Any repair work should be referred to a suitable qualified and experienced service person.

DO NOT attempt to connect any input of this amplifier to any of its outputs.

DO NOT earth any output terminal or connect any of these terminals together without following the instructions in this manual or seeking qualified assistance.

DO NOT place this amplifier in any position where liquids or any foreign material may accidentally enter it.

AMPLIFIER FACILITIES AND FEATURES FRONT PANEL

The front panel of the 2100i power amplifier incorporates a panel fitted with one switch, and three knobs. These control the day to day functions of the amplifier. These controls are from the left;

MAINS SWITCH. This heavy duty rocker switch to the left of this panel switches the MAINS / LINE Power to the amplifier ON or OFF. A LED immediately adjacent to the switch illuminates to indicate that the power is ON.

It is not good practice to repeatedly active this switch ON and OFF rapidly.

TAPE

The Record Selector allows recording of any chosen source and will not interfere with any source that is being listened to eg. it is possible to be listening to the CD Input and be making a recording from the Tuner. Two Tape decks can be fitted and dubbing in either direction is possible.

LISTEN

The Source Selector allows any of the inputs chosen to appear at the Main Outputs.

VOLUME

The volume control is an ALPS type and will accurately convey the source signals to the high level amplification stages.
