Replacing the fuse
Should the mains fuse blow replace it only with an equivalent part. The fuse holder
is located just below the mains inlet socket. To replace the fuse disconnect the
product from the mains supply. Using a flat blade screwdriver remove and replace
the fuse. If the fuse blows a second time there is a fault in the product. Contact your
local retailer.

Setting the mains operating voltage
All products with a voltage selector switch must be set to the local mains supply

before connecting the product to a mains supply.
To set the mains operating voltage unplug the mains supply cable and using a flat
blade screwdriver turn the selector switch to the appropriate voltage.

operation
AV 5150 Active Isobarik Bass Speaker
The AV 5150 contains circuitry which senses the presence of an audio signal and
powers up the product. The AV 5150 remains powered up for several minutes after
the audio signal disappears, then reverts to standby mode, consuming very little
power. Standby mode is indicated by the front panel indicator glowing red. Full
operation is indicated by the front panel indicator glowing green. The mains switch
(behind the control area cover) switches the product OFF completely or ON. If, after
three minutes, the AV 5150 does not sense an audio signal it will switch to standby
mode.
Positioning the products and heat
All electronic products generate some heat. Audio products, in particular audio
power amplifiers, have to handle and dissipate large amounts of power. It is
essential to provide adequate ventilation to allow this heat to dissipate into the
environment. All Linn products are fully protected against overheating and will shut
down before any component becomes over heated. However the products will last
longer and perform better if they are kept cool. The AV 5150 Active Isobarik Bass
Speaker keeps its power amplifier semiconductors cool by transferring the heat on
to the extruded heatsink. As a result the extrusion will become warm in use.
