Power Supply: Use of Batteries

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
• When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off the power on this unit and disconnect any other devices you may have connected. This way, you can prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.

Maintenance

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable's internal elements.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.

The KC-110 can be operated using either an AC adaptor or batteries. Use the type of power that's appropriate for your situation.

Connecting the AC adaptor

* Use only the AC adaptor that is supplied with the KC-110.

Installing batteries

Removing the battery case

Although it is possible to replace the batteries without removing the battery case, battery replacement will be easier if you remove the battery case.

* We recommend that you keep batteries installed in the unit even though you'll be powering it with the AC adaptor. That way, you'll be able to continue a performance even if the cord of the AC adaptor gets accidentally disconnected from the unit.
* To prevent malfunction and speaker damage, make sure to switch off the KC-110's power before you insert or replace its batteries, and before connecting it to other devices.
* Take care that no metal object touches the contacts of the battery case. This can short-circuit the batteries, causing the case to overheat or burn.

About batteries

Batteries that can be used

The KC-110 uses eight AA alkaline or nickel-metal hydride batteries.

* Nickel-metal hydride batteries cannot be recharged by the KC-110 itself. You'll need to use a commercially available battery manufacturer.
* When using nickel-metal hydride batteries, please be aware that the battery life will normally shorten each time they are recharged.

Caution regarding batteries

• Insert the batteries as directed, taking care to observe the correct polarity (+/- orientation).
• Do not mix new and used batteries, or batteries of different types.
• Carefully read and observe the cautions and handling instructions that accompany the batteries.

When using nickel-metal hydride batteries, you must use the charger that is specified by the battery manufacturer.

• Remove the batteries if you won't be using the unit for several months.
• If any electrolyte leaks from a battery, use a dry cloth to carefully wipe off any electrolyte that might be on the battery case, and then install new batteries. Battery electrolyte that contacts your skin may cause a rash. Battery electrolyte is hazardous to your eyes; if any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
• Do not carry or store batteries together with metallic objects such as pens, necklaces, or hairpins.

Turning the power on/off

Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

1. Make sure that the power to all equipment is turned off.
2. Connect your external equipment.
3. Set each of the KC-110's level knobs and the [VOLUME] knob to 0.

1. Switch on the power to any external equipment connected to CH 1–3 or AUX IN jacks.
2. Switch on the KC-110's power.

1. Power up the equipment connected to the LINE OUT jack.

To turn the power off, reverse these steps.

NOTE

• To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.
• This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.
• Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down, you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction.
• If you're operating the KC-110 only on batteries, the POWER indicator will become dim as the batteries run low.

When the batteries run even lower, the POWER indicator will blink. Replace the batteries as soon as possible.

• If the batteries are extremely low, the sound will be more likely to distort, and you may hear distortion at high volume levels. This is not a malfunction. Either replace the batteries, or use the included AC adaptor.
• Expected battery life under continuous use:

• Alkaline batteries approximately 7 hours
- Nickel-metal hydride batteries approximately 8 hours

- Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:

1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
