Connecting the Power Cord
AC Input
Your RDV-1050 is configured at the factory
for the proper AC line voltage in the country
where you purchased it (USA: 115 volts/60Hz
AC or CE: 230 volts/50Hz AC). The AC line
configuration is noted on a decal on the back
of your unit.
After all the audio/video connections have
been made, plug the supplied power cord into
the AC INPUT receptacle on the back of the
unit. Then insert the power plug into an AC
wall outlet. The STANDBY indicator lights and
setup is complete. Note that a small amount
of power (2 watts) is always used while the
power cord is connected to the wall outlet.
Observe the following precautions:
• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord
with wet hands.
• Disconnect the power cord if you are not
going to use the unit for a long time.
• When unplugging the player from the wall
outlet, always pull the plug, not the power
cord.
• Disconnect the power cord before clean-
ing the unit.
• Disconnect the power cord before moving
the unit.
• Do not damage, alter, twist or pull the power
cord. This may damage the cord and cause
fire, electric shock, or other accidents. Con-
tact your authorized Rotel dealer and get
a new power cord if the cord is damaged.
• Do not put anything heavy, on the unit, or
the power cord, as this may cause fire, elec-
tric shock, or other accidents.
