1.1 BEFORE OPERATING THE AMPLIFIER
Check that you have received everything in the Packing List below and report any discrepancies to your
dealer as soon as possible. Retain all packing materials and use them for any future shipment.
Packing List:
• Amplifier
• Power Cord (North America only)
• Operating Manual
Keep the invoice that you received from your authorized Anthem dealer at time of purchase – without
it, service will not be provided under warranty.
Safety Instructions:
• Read all safety precautions and instructions at the beginning of this manual.
• Do not connect power if there are any signs of damage to any part of the exterior.

AC line. Ensure that the power cord remains readily accessible at all times.
• To connect power, only use the supplied double-insulated power cord.
• Allow adequate ventilation to ensure reliable operation and to prevent overheating. The amount of
space required above the unit for radiation depends on ambient air temperature and circulation.

installed to adequately draw air away from the top of the unit.
