INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this Cambridge Audio Azur 340T, a newly developed FM/AM tuner to compliment the Cambridge Audio Azur range.

About this unit

The 340T incorporates sophisticated Alarm and Sleep timer functions that can turn on and off connected Cambridge Audio amplifiers fitted with Control Bus inputs/outputs. A specific version of the azur remote is provided, giving full remote control of the tuner functions in an attractive and easy to use handset.

The 340T can only be as good as the system it is connected to. Please do not compromise on your amplifier, speakers or cabling. Naturally we recommend amplification and cabling from the Cambridge Audio range, connected to suitably revealing loudspeakers. The use of an external FM/AM aerial is strongly recommended to get the best from your 340T.

Now we invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Checking the Power Supply Rating

For your own safety please read the following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this unit to the mains.

Check that the rear of your unit indicates the correct supply voltage. If your mains supply voltage is different, consult your dealer.

This unit is designed to operate only on the supply voltage and type that is indicated on the rear panel of the unit. Connecting to other power sources may damage the unit.

This equipment must be switched off when not in use and must not be used unless correctly earthed. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the unit's cover (or back). There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. If the power cord is fitted with a moulded mains plug the unit must not be used if the plastic fuse carrier is not in place. Should you lose the fuse carrier the correct part must be reordered from your Cambridge Audio dealer.

The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated 'dangerous voltage' within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance instructions in the service literature relevant to this appliance.

This product complies with European Low Voltage (73/23/EEC) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (89/336/EEC) Directives when used and installed according to this instruction manual. For continued compliance only Cambridge Audio accessories should be used with this product and servicing must be referred to qualified service personnel.

The crossed-out wheeled bin is the European Union symbol for indicating separate collection for electrical and electronic equipment. This product contains electrical and electronic equipment which should be reused, recycled or recovered and should not be disposed of with unsorted regular waste. Please return the unit or contact the authorised dealer from whom you purchased this product for more information.

Plug Fitting Instructions (UK Only)

The cord supplied with this appliance is factory fitted with a 13 amp mains plug fitted with a 3 amp fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that a 3 amp one is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into a 13 amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should it be necessary to fit a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires should be fitted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows:

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured RED.

The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'E' or coloured GREEN.

If your model does not have an earth wire, then disregard this instruction.

If a 13amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 3amp fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is used a 3amp or 5amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the distribution board.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please take a moment to read these notes before installing your Azur tuner, they will enable you to get the best performance and prolong the life of the product. We advise you follow all instructions, heed all warnings and keep the instructions for future reference.

This unit must be installed on a sturdy, level surface. Since the power transformers generate a magnetic hum-field of moderate strength, a turntable should not be located nearby.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

The unit must be installed in a manner that makes disconnection of a mains plug from the mains socket outlet (or appliance connector from the rear of the unit) possible.

Do not plug your 340T directly into a power amplifier unless it has a variable output level.

Do not route the power cable so that it can be walked upon or damaged by other items near it.

The unit requires ventilation. Do not situate it on a rug or other soft surface and do not obstruct any air inlets or outlet grilles.

Do not place in a sealed area such as a bookcase or in a cabinet. Any space open at the back (such as a dedicated equipment rack) is fine however.

Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

When using for the first time it is advisable that it is left on, playing music, for at least 36 hours prior to critical listening. For subsequent use, a warm up period of 10-15 minutes is recommended for maximum enjoyment.

If you do not intend to use this unit for a long period, switch it to standby and unplug it from the mains socket. Also unplug the unit during lightning storms.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. This unit must not be exposed to dripping or splashing water or other liquids. No objects filled with liquid, such as vases, shall be placed on the unit. In the event of spillage, switch off immediately, disconnect from the mains supply and contact your dealer for advice.

To clean the unit, wipe its case with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning fluids containing alcohol, ammonia or abrasives. Do not spray an aerosol at or near your 340T.

Ensure that small objects do not fall through any ventilation grille. If this happens, switch off immediately, disconnect from the mains supply and contact your dealer for advice.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the unit has been damaged in any way, such as a damaged power-supply cord or plug, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the unit, the unit has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

If you have checked the troubleshooting guide in the manual with no improvement, do not attempt to repair, disassemble or reconstruct the unit. A serious electric shock could result if this precautionary measure is ignored.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

AC Power Socket

Once all connections have been made, plug the AC power cable into an appropriate mains socket. Your 340T is now ready for use.

Audio Output

Connect to your amplifier using RCA/phono cables.

Control Bus

The Control Bus carries control information, in the form of demodulated remote control signals, between the tuner and other Cambridge Audio devices connected to it.

Custom Installation (C.I.) Use

The 340T has a Control Bus input/output that allows unmodulated remote control commands (positive logic, TTL level) to be received electrically by the unit and looped to another unit if desired. These control commands are typically generated by custom installation (multi-room) systems.

The Control Bus sockets are colour coded orange and an appropriate colour coded RCA/phono lead is provided for when this feature is used (a plastic twist tie is also included for cable management). In addition the 340T features direct IR/Control codes as well as toggle codes for many of its features to simplify programming custom installation systems. Special direct commands can be accessed on the supplied remote control for teaching into C.I. systems as follows:

Specific power on/off commands - press and hold the Standby button. The remote first generates it's usual amp and tuner standby (toggle) commands (both are sent). Keep the button held down, after 12 seconds an Amp On command will be generated, then if the button is kept held down after a further 12 seconds an Amp off command is generated, then separated by 12 second pauses, Tuner On, and finally Tuner Off.

Specific band selection commands - press and hold the FM/AM key. The usual band toggle command is first, then the FM Mode command, followed by the AM Mode command is generated.

Specific Preset/Scan mode commands - Press and hold the Mode key. The usual mode toggle command is first, then the Scan Mode command, followed by the Preset Mode command.

Specific Mute On/Off commands - press and hold the Mute key. The usual mute toggle command is first, followed by the Mute On command, and then the Mute Off command.
