There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of: 1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated. 2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. 3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to. 4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed. 5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for example near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc. 6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer. 6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn. 7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer. 8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings or placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings. 9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance. 11. Grounding - Precautions should be taken so that the grounding means of the appliance is not defeated. 12. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from the appliance. 13. Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning. The appliance should normally only require a wipe over with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. If it is heavily soiled then a cloth slightly dampened with a water/washing up liquid solution may be used. Dry the unit afterwards with a dry cloth. We do not advise the use of furniture type cleaning sprays/polishes as this can cause white marks, which are very difficult to remove, if the unit is then wiped over with water. 14. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna/ aerial should be located away from power lines. 15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time. 16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through any openings. 17. Abnormal Smell - If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from the appliance, immediately turn the power off and unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer immediately. 18. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged or: B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the appliance or: C. The appliance has been exposed to rain or: D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance or: E. The appliance has been dropped or the enclosure damaged. 19. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel. Introduction & Installation ENGLISH INTRODUCTION Arcam’s Alpha series of amplifiers is designed to be the finest sounding range of hi-fi amplifiers currently available in its price category. The latest Alpha 7 and 8 models feature improved output circuit protection compared with their predecessors. They may also be upgraded at any time with the addition of the matching Alpha 8P or 9P power amplifiers. The Alpha 7 amplifier is rated at 40 watts per channel into 8 ohms. The Alpha 8 and 8P are rated at 50 watts per channel into 8 ohms. In addition the Alpha 8's volume control is motorised, allowing it to be operated from a suitable remote control handset such as those supplied with all Arcam CD players. Arcam’s “Handi-Remote”, model CR30 is also suitable. This is available as an optional extra from your Arcam dealer. For the above reasons no handset is supplied with the Alpha 8 amplifier.
