Remote Sensor
6
The Remote Sensor picks up the infrared
signals from the remote control. Do not cover
or block the sensor. It must be unobstructed
or the remote control will not work properly.
The operation of the Remote Sensor can also
be affected if it is exposed to bright light,
particularly sunlight. Certain types of lighting,
such as halogen lights, that emit a fair amount
of infrared light, can also interfere with proper
operation. In addition remote control functions
may not work reliably if the batteries in the
RR-AT94 are weak.
A Few Precautions
WARNING: To avoid potential damage to
your system, turn off ALL the components in
the system when connecting or disconnect-
ing the loudspeakers or any associated
components. Do not turn the system compo
-
nents back on until you are sure all the con-
nections are correct and secure. Pay
particular attention to the speaker wires.
There must be no loose strands that could
contact the other speaker wires, or the chas-
sis of the amplifier.
Please read this manual carefully. It provides
information on how to incorporate the RA-06
into your system as well as information that
will help you get optimum sound performance.
Please contact your authorized Rotel dealer
for answers to any questions you might have.
In addition, all of us at Rotel welcome your
questions and comments.
Save the RA-06 shipping carton and all en
-
closed packing material for future use. Shipping
or moving the RA-06 in anything other than
the original packing material may result in
severe damage to your amplifier.
Fill out and send in the owner’s registration
card packed with the RA-06. Also be sure
to keep the original sales receipt. It is your
best record of the date of purchase, which
you will need in the event warranty service
is ever required.
Placement
Like all audio components that handle low-
level signals, the RA-06 can be affected by
its environment. Avoid placing the RA-06 on
top of other components. Also avoid routing
audio signal cables near power cords. This
will minimize the chance it will pick up hum
or interference.
The RA-06 generates heat as part of its nor
-
mal operation. The heat sinks and ventilation
openings in the amplifier are designed to
dissipate this heat. The ventilation slots in
the top cover must be open. There should
be 10 cm (4 inches) of clearance around the
chassis, and reasonable airflow through the
installation location, to prevent the amplifier
from overheating.
Remember the weight of the amplifier when
you select an installation location. Make sure
that the shelf or cabinet can support it. We
recommend installing the RA-06 in furniture
designed to house audio components. Such
furniture is designed to reduce or suppress
vibration which can adversely affect sound
quality. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer for
advice about component furniture and proper
installation of audio components.
Cables
Be sure to keep the power cords, digital signal
cables and regular audio signal cables in
your installation away from each other. This
will minimize the chance of the regular audio
signal cables picking up noise or interference
from the power cords or digital cables. Using
only high quality, shielded cables will also help
to prevent noise or interference from degrad
-
ing the sound quality of your system. If you
have any questions see your authorized Rotel
dealer for advice about the best cable to use
with your system.
AC Power and Control
AC Power Input
p
The RA-06 does not draw high levels of current
from the power outlet. However, whenever pos
-
sible, it should be plugged directly into a 2-pin
polarized wall outlet. Do not use an extension
cord. A heavy duty multi-tap power outlet strip
may be used if it (and the wall outlet) can handle
the current demanded by theRA-06 and all the
other components connected to it.
Your RA-06 is configured at the factory for the
proper AC line voltage in the country where
you purchased it (either 120 volts AC or 230
volts AC with a line frequency of either 50 Hz
or 60 Hz). The AC line configuration is noted
on a decal on the back panel.
NOTE: Should you move your RA-06 amplifier
to another country, it is possible to reconfigure
it for use on a different line voltage. Do not
attempt to perform this conversion yourself.
Opening the enclosure of the RA-06 exposes
you to dangerous voltages. Consult a quali
-
fied service person or the Rotel factory service
department for information.
If you are going to be away from home for an
extended period of time such as a month-long
vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug
your amplifier (as well as other audio and video
components) while you are away.
