Unpacking and Placement
unpacking Unpack your Nº383 Integrated Amplifier and keep all packing materi-
als for future transport. Locate and remove all accessory items from the
Accessory Box within the Controller shipping carton. Accessories in-
clude:
1 detachable AC power cord
1 Nº383 remote control
2 AAA alkaline batteries
Also included with your new Mark Levinson component is a pair of
knit, white gloves to assist you in the initial unpacking and placement
of your new purchase. Please accept them as a token of our apprecia-
tion for having purchased one of our products.
installing the batteries
in the remote control
Using a #3 (small) Philips head screwdriver, remove the three screws in
the bottom plate of the remote control. Insert the two alkaline batteries
found in the Accessories box, being careful to follow the polarity indi-
cations given on the inside of the battery compartment. Replace the
end cap and the screws.
If at some point you notice that your remote control seems not to be
performing as well as it once did, its batteries are probably running low.
Check the batteries periodically, and replace batteries before they are
“dead.” (Fully discharged batteries are prone to leaking corrosive
chemicals—the greenish “gunk” you may have seen around battery ter-
minals of other remote controls.)
placement The Nº383 should generally be placed close to your source equipment,
thus keeping interconnect cabling short. We strongly recommend
mounting the Nº383 on its own shelf to allow for proper ventilation.
continuous operation The Nº383 is designed for continuous operation—it is designed to be
connected to the AC mains at all times for the best performance. While
we also include a front-panel power switch that actually disconnects
the Nº383 from the AC mains, we recommend you use the standby
button instead, which leaves the voltage gain stages of the Nº383
warmed up and sounding their best at all times.
(The exception to this suggestion is if you are going to be away for a
prolonged period of time, perhaps on vacation.)
