SERVICE AND CARE
CARE AND CLEANING
The cabinet housing and front panel of the DAC-100 and DAC-100t may be cleaned with a soft
cloth and Windex or a window cleaner. The frequency of cleaning will be governed by how
many hours the DAC-100 or DAC-100t is operated and by operating environment cleanliness.
CAUTION:
• Do not let any liquids spill into the vents on top of the unit.
AC POWER FUSE REPLACEMENT
Never replace the fuse with any other value than a two (2) amp slow blow fuse, 250V for a unit
configured to operate at 110V-120V AC. Never use any other value than a one (1) amp slow
blow fuse, 250V for a unit configured to operate at 220V-240V AC. The AC Power Cord must be
unplugged from the AC Power jack on the back of the unit prior to replacing the fuse. The AC
power fuse is NOT in the IEC power socket on this model, but rather is a bayonet holder just
above the power cord. Remove the fuse holder by twisting the holder counter-clockwise and
pulling it straight out. Replace the fuse in the holder, push it into the socket and turn it
clockwise until it stops. Set the unit Power On/Off switch to the Off position and plug the AC
Power cord back into the AC Power jack. Then set the Power On/Off switch to the On position
and verify proper operation. Contact Cary Audio for advice if the fuse repeatedly blows.
FACTORY SERVICE
Careful consideration has been given to the design of your DAC-100 or DAC-100t to keep
maintenance problems to a minimum. Any problems or requests for service should be referred to
our Customer Service Department at 919-355-0010. DO NOT return the DAC-100 or DAC-100t to
the factory without a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number from our online Customer
Service Center (www.caryaudio.com/support/servicereturns).
Cary Audio will assume no responsibility if the shipping company refuses to pay for damage due
to your improper packing or lack of insurance should the unit be lost or damaged in shipment.
Please retain and always use the original shipping carton for shipping the player. Also, Cary
Audio reserves the right to return products sent in for service in a new box set at the customer’s
expense if the original packing material was damaged in the initial shipment, or if it is deemed
unsatisfactory to use in return shipping.

this time, the standard non-warranty service bench fee is $125 for the first hour and $95 per hour
thereafter. Parts used for repairs as well as return shipping are additional. This may change and
