INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS UNPACKING PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION When unpacking your N0585: • Install the integrated amplifier on a shelf with nothing above it, such as the top shelf in an open rack, to ensure proper ventilation. Do NOT install the integrated amplifier inside of an enclosed cabinet or rack. • Save all packing materials in case you need to ship your N0585 in the future. • Inspect your N0585 for signs of damage during shipment.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS POWER REQUIREMENTS OPERATING STATES The Nº585 is configured at the factory for 100, 115, or 230 VAC power operation at 50Hz or 60Hz. Before operating the amplifier, ensure that the power label on the rear panel near the AC input connector indicates the correct operating voltage. A detachable IEC power cable intended for use in the region where the N0585 is sold is included.

QUICK SETUP AND LISTEN QUICK SETUP AND LISTEN REMOTE CONTROL Battery Installation Your N0585 remote control comes with two AAA alkaline batteries. To install the batteries, remove the remote control’s battery cover, insert the batteries and replace the battery cover. Be sure to observe proper battery polarity. Using the Remote Control When using the remote control, aim it toward the N0585's front panel IR receiver. Make sure that no objects, such as furniture, block the remote’s view of the receiver.
QUICK SETUP AND LISTEN INITIAL CONNECTIONS NOTE: For complete information about making connections, see the N0585 User Guide. at www. marklevinson.com. CAUTION: Before making connections, make sure the N0585 and all associated components are powered off and disconnected from electrical outlets. 1. Connect your speakers to the N0585's loudspeaker binding posts.
