Safety Precautions
Read this User’s Guide thoroughly before attempting to install and configure the Emotiva LMC-
1 Preamplifier. All the safety and operation instructions should be read before any operation of
the component(s) begin. After successful installation and configuration of the Emotiva LMC-1
Preamplifier, be sure to retain this manual in a safe place for any future reference needs.
All warnings on the Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier and in these operating instructions
should be followed. Safety is a key component to a long lasting and trouble free
installation. The vast majority of the subsequent safety precautions involve simple
common sense. If you are not comfortable with the installation of audio/video
entertainment equipment, it will be to your benefit to seek the services of a qualified
installation professional.
NEVER use the LMC-1 Preamplifier near water such as a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry
tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc. There is a risk of electric shock to your body
and permanent damage to the equipment. Electric shock may result in permanent bodily injury or
death.
The Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier should be situated so that its location or installation position does
not interfere with proper ventilation. The Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier should not be situated on a bed,
sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block any ventilation openings; or placed in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase, cabinet, or closed equipment rack that may impede the flow of air through
ventilation openings. If installed in a closed equipment rack for custom installations, be sure to add
forced air ventilation so that it has adequate air circulation. The Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier should
be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, or any other devices which produce heat.
The Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier should be connected to a power supply only of the type described
in this User’s Guide and what is labeled on the LMC-1 component. Power supply cords should be
routed so that they are not in high foot traffic areas or pinched by items placed upon or against
them, paying particular attention to cords at the wall plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they connect into the LMC-1 Preamplifier. The power cord of the LMC-1 Preamplifier should
be unplugged from the outlet when unused for a long period of time. When it’s time for cleaning the
Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier, it should be cleaned only as recommended in this User’s Guide. Never
spray liquids directly into the component’s vent openings. Care should be taken so that small objects
do not fall into the inside of the LMC-1 Preamplifier.
The following situations require your Emotiva LMC-1 Preamplifier is serviced only by qualified service
personnel:
1. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
2. Objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the component; or
3. The LMC-1 has been exposed to rain; or
4. The LMC-1 does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in
performance; or
5. The LMC-1 has been dropped, or its enclosure or chassis is damaged.
Page 8
The user should not attempt to service the LMC-1 Preamplifier beyond the means described in this
Owner’s Guide. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord,
receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade
exposure.

peuvent titre inserees a fond sans laisser aucune parIIIe a decouvert.
Grounding or Polarization — Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization
means of the component is not defeated.

NEC (National Electrical Code) Standards
A Note for the Cable Television (CATV) Installer
This reminder is to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Antenna Grounding Outside the House
If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the lead-
in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode. See diagram below.
Always observe proper antenna or satellite dish grounding techniques. When lightning strikes
there is always the possibility that your antenna or dish (mounted high on the roof) can
become a conduit for lightning and electrically damage any equipment to which it’s connected.
Additionally, proper grounding offers safety to the people using the audio/video system in the
event of an electrical problem.
