INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
VENTILATION Although your new Nocturne Receiver rarely develops high heat, it i s still recommended that you leave the back of the cabinet open. If this i s not possible, provide several large holes or slots as low down and as high up in the cabinet back as possible. As an alternate, holes may be provided in the sides, bottom or top of the cabinet. Remember that really effective ventilation requires provision for cool air to enter at the bottom and hot air to leave at the top. A minimum clearance of two (2) inches should be allowed on each side and in the rear, between the chassis and the cabinet, and three (3) inches are required above it. Isolate any accessories which might interfere with ventilation. For example, d o not drape plastic or rubber covered interconnecting cable over the equipment. The rear panel surface of your receiver has been designed as a heat dissipating device for the output transistors. This area will become warm under normal use and should not b e cause for concern. POWER REQUIREMENTS Connect the AC line cord into any outlet furnishing 11 7 volts, 50 or 60 cycle AC current. The voltage may vary between 105 and 125 volts. An auxiliary AC power outlet i s provided on the rear panel of your receiver. Any accessory equipment (tape recorder, phonograph record player, etc.) may be connected to this receptacle and will be controlled by the O N OFF switch on the front panel of your receiver.
