INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The MC-8 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal
performance. Pay particular attention to instructions below and to
other precautions that appear throughout this user guide.
DO install the MC-8 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or
shelf. The MC-8 can also be installed in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack using an optional rack-mount kit available from an
authorized Lexicon dealer.
DO select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.
DO NOT expose the MC-8 to high temperatures, humidity, steam,
smoke, dampness or excessive dust. Avoid installing the MC-8 near
radiators and other heat-producing appliances.
DO NOT install the MC-8 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable
TV decoders, or other RF-emitting devices that might cause
interference.
DO NOT place the MC-8 on a thick rug or carpet, or cover the
MC-8 with a cloth, as this might prevent proper cooling.
DO NOT place the MC-8 on a windowsill or any location exposed
to direct sunlight.
DO NOT obstruct the front-panel IR receiver window. The remote
control must be in line of sight with the IR receiver for proper
operation.
DO NOT install the MC-8 on a surface that is unstable or unable to
support all four feet.
DO NOT stack the MC-8 directly above heat-producing equipment
such as a power amplifier.
CAUTION!
Before moving the MC-8, power the unit off using the
rear-panel power switch and unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet.
