Installation & Safety
TUCANA II
User installation and safety advice
Please ensure that the mains voltage of your new Tucana II amplifier is correct for your region. The setting is displayed on a label next
to the mains power inlet. The mains voltage setting is not user adjustable, therefore the amplifier must be returned to the
manufacturer if any changes are required. Ensure the mains supply is switched off at the wall socket, or unplugged before installing
or moving the amplifier.
Do not use near water, for example do not place a potted plant on top of the unit or allow drinks to be placed near the unit. If liquid is
spilt in to the cabinet, remove the mains lead from the wall immediately. The amplifier should then be returned to your dealer for
safety testing before re-use. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or even fire! Do not use the amplifier in damp conditions, for
example, outside of the house. In the event of an electrical storm, remove the mains power lead from the wall outlet.
Keep away from direct sunlight and other heat sources and ensure adequate ventilation around the amplifier to maintain proper
cooling. Units MUST NOT be stacked directly on top of each other.
Never attempt to open the cabinet. There are no user serviceable parts inside and doing so will invalidate the amplifier’s warranty.
Avoid touching the amplifier cabinet after prolonged use at high output, as the case and heatsinks may become hot to the touch.
As with all high-powered amplifiers, high voltages can occur at the output binding posts. Loudspeaker connection should only be
carried out with the unit switched off. Care should be taken to ensure there is no possibility of short circuit behind the unit when in use -
for example, metal framed hi-fi units may be a hazard.
To ensure maximum audio quality and dynamics, Tucana II does not use output short circuit protection except for power supply
fuses, so extreme care must be taken.
