Outlaw Audio RR2160
MkII Stereo RetroReceiver

NOTE: It is always a good idea to avoid using any audio or video
equipment on the same AC circuit as equipment with motors, such
as air conditioners or refrigerators. This will lessen the possibility of
power variation and electrical start-up noise affecting your sound
system.
Power Cord
The removable power cord that is shipped with the RR2160
MkII is
specifically designed to be used with this product. DO NOT use
any other power cord, as that may reduce the unit’s performance
and possibly create a safety hazard. In particular, DO NOT use
standard IEC type power cords designed for computers and other
business equipment products, as they have a three prong plug that
is not meant for use with the RR2160
MkII. Should the power cord
require replacement, use an identical type, or contact Outlaw
Audio for service.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always pull
the plug, never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use the
RR2160
MkII for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug
from the AC outlet. If the power cord is replaced, make certain that
it is of similar gauge. As with all electrical devices, do not run
power cords under rugs or carpets or place heavy objects on them.
Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately with cords
meeting factory specifications.
AC Fuse
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-ser
vice-able.
If power does not come on, contact Outlaw Audio.
Wiring
Cables that are run inside of walls should have the appropriate
markings to indicate compliance with, and listing by the UL , CSA
or other standards required by the UL, CSA, NEC or your local
building code. Questions about cables inside of walls should be
referred to a qualified custom installer, or a licensed electrician or
low-voltage contractor.
Installation Location
To assure proper operation and to avoid the potential for safety
hazards, place the unit on a firm and level surface capable of
supporting it’s weight. When placing the unit on a shelf, be certain
that the shelf and any mounting hardware can support the w
eight
of the unit and any additional items in the equipment rack, or on
the shelf.
When positioning the RR2160
MkII in its final location, make certain
that it has adequate ventilation on all sides, as well as on the top
and bottom. In particular, it is a good idea to provide at least three
to six inches of room above the unit for air circulation. DO NOT
place CDs, DVDs, videotapes, owner’s manuals, or other paper on
top of, or beneath, the unit, or in-between multiple amplifiers in a
stack. This will block airflow, causing heat build-up, degraded
performance, and may create a possible fire hazard.
If the unit is to be enclosed in a cabinet or rack, make certain there
is adequate air circulation. Sufficient ventilation should be provided
so that hot air may exit, and cool ai
r may enter the cabinet. In
some instances, a small cooling fan may be required to insure
adequate airflow through the cabinet. If you are in doubt as to the
ventilation requirements for your specific installation, please
contact us. Also, do not place the RR2160
MkII directly on a carpeted
surface, as this will inhibit airflow underneath as well as create a
potential fire hazard.
Avoid installation in humid locations, in extremely hot or cold
locations, or in areas that are exposed to direct sunlight or space
heating equipment.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user serviceable components inside this product.
Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any
modification to the product will void your guarantee
. If water or any
metal object, such as a paper clip, coin or a staple, accidentally
falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source
immediately, and contact Outlaw Audio for further instructions.

Note to CATV system installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system ins
taller’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70
, which
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in pa
rticular,
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected
to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of ca
ble entry as
practical.
FCC Information for
User
CAUTION: ANY changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation.
If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
Outdoor Antenna Installation
Safe Antenna and cable Connection
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
equipment, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against built up static charges and
voltage surges. Section 810 of the National Electrica
l Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada, part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code)
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast
and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge
unit, size of
grounding
conductors, location
of antenna discharge
unit, connection to
grounding electrodes
and requirements for
the grounding
electrode.
Keep Antenna Clear of High Voltage Power Lines or Circuits
An outside antenna system should be located well away from
power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it will never
come into contact with these power sources if it should happen to
fall. When installing an outside antenna, extreme care should be
taken to avoid touching power lines, circuits or other power
sources as this could be fatal. Because of the hazards involved,
antenna installation should be left to a professional.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator and
your body
