Using your R7 on spindle legs

To mount your R7 on the spindle legs:

1.Carefully place your R7 upside down on a soft and protective surface like a rug or the R7 bag. We recommend

you get help with moving your R7 as it is heavy!

2. Screw the four legs into the mounting plates on the underside of the cabinet. Carefully hand-tighten each leg so that it is secure but take care not to overtighten.

3.Turn your R7 over and let it rest on the legs gently.

4.Carefully move your R7 into its final position and adjust the leg tips (41) to ensure it is completely stable. The locknuts (40) on the leg tips should also be tightened.

Getting started

1 Connect the aerial

The supplied aerial is a temporary wire aerial for initial use and is designed to work with both DAB and FM signals. Connect it to the combined DAB-FM antenna socket (39).

For best reception we highly recommend having an external professionally installed combined aerial or separate FM and DAB aerials. See page 21.

2 Connect to mains power

Plug the mains power cord (7) into the mains power socket (33) on the back of your R7 and then plug it into a mains outlet.

4 Switch on

Switch the mains power switch (31) on the back of your R7 to the ON position. Your R7 is now in standby.

To turn your R7 on, press STANDBY (22). The Ruark Audio logo will then appear on the screen.

5 Pair your remote

When you are prompted to pair your remote control, hold it very close to the display, just above the front panel controls, and press SELECT (10).

When your remote pairs you will see a confirmation screen and your remote is now ready to use.

Remote paired

You won’t normally need to pair it again but if you if do, simply repeat the steps above. Please note that each remote can only be paired to one music system at a time.
