Getting Started Mark Levinson
Power Requirements
When shipped, the media player is configured for 100, 120, 220 or
230-240VAC power operation at 50 or 60Hz. Before operating the
media player, make sure the ~ac mains connector label indicates the
correct operating voltage for the current location.
Caution! DO NOT attempt to adjust the operating voltage. Consult an
authorized Mark Levinson dealer if the operating voltage is
incorrect or must be changed for relocation purposes.
Different operating voltages may require the use of different
power cords and/or attachment plugs. Contact an authorized
Mark Levinson dealer for additional assistance.
Power On from
Power Button
When powered on with the power button, the main output
connectors mute while the media player executes its initialization
sequence. The media player automatically enters standby after
completing its initialization sequence.
Power On from
Standby
The media player should be unplugged during lightning storms and
during extended periods of non-use. Otherwise, it is designed for
continuous operation. For best performance, make sure power is
connected to the media player at all times. During normal
operation, do not use the power button to power off the media
player. Standby places the media player in a low-power mode that
conserves energy.
Warm-up &
Break-in Period
Although the media player delivers superior performance from the
first time it is powered on, this performance will continue to
improve as the media player reaches its normal operating temper-
ature and various components “break in.” The greatest performance
improvements will occur within the first 25 to 50 hours of use.
Sound quality will continue to improve for about 300 hours.
After this initial period, performance will remain consistent unless
power is disconnected from the media player.
Power is disconnected when the media player is powered off with
the power button; the power cord is disconnected from the ~ac
mains connector or the electrical outlet; or an extended power
failure or power outage occurs. Power is not disconnected when the
media player is in standby.
