INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The MC-4 requires special care during installation to ensure
optimal performance. Pay particular attention to the bulleted
items that begin below and to other precautions that appear
throughout this user guide.
DO
• Install the MC-4 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table
or shelf. The MC-4 can also be installed in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack using the optional rack-mount kit available
from authorized Lexicon dealers.
• Select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.
DO NOT
• Expose the MC-4 to high temperatures, humidity, steam,
smoke, dampness or excessive dust. Avoid installing the MC-4
near radiators and other heat-producing appliances.
• Install the MC-4 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable TV
decoders and other RF-emitting devices that might cause
interference.
DO NOT (continued)
• Place the MC-4 on a thick rug or carpet or cover the MC-4
with a cloth, as this might prevent proper cooling.
• Place the MC-4 on a windowsill or in another location in
which it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Obstruct the front panel IR receiver window. The remote
control must be in line of sight with the IR receiver for proper
operation. See “Operation Considerations” on page 2-6 for
more information.
• Install the MC-4 on a surface that is unstable or unable to
support all four of its feet, unless it is installed in an
equipment rack.
• Stack the MC-4 directly above heat-producing equipment
such as power amplifiers.
Before moving the MC-4, make sure it is powered off with the
rear panel power switch. Then make sure the power cord is
unplugged from the wall outlet.
