A Few Precautions

WARNING: To avoid potential damage to your system, turn off ALL
the components in the system when connecting or disconnecting the
loudspeakers or any associated components. Do not turn the system
components back on until you are sure all the connections are correct
and secure. Pay particular attention to the speaker wires. There must
be no loose strands that could contact the other speaker wires, or the
chassis of the amplifier.
Please read this manual carefully. In addition to basic installation and
operating instructions, it provides valuable information on various RC-1590
system configurations as well as general information that will help you get
optimum performance from your system. Please contact your authorized
Rotel dealer for answers to any questions you might have. In addition, all
of us at Rotel welcome your questions and comments.
Save the RC-1590 shipping carton and all enclosed packing material for
future use. Shipping or moving the RC-1590 in anything other than the
original packing material may result in severe damage to your amplifier.
If included in the box please fill out and send in the owner's registration
card. Also be sure to keep the original sales receipt. It is your best record
of the date of purchase, which you will need in the event warranty service
is ever required.

Placement

Like all audio components that handle low-level signals, the RC-1590 can
be affected by its environment. Avoid placing the RC-1590 on top of other
components. Also avoid routing audio signal cables near power cords. This
will minimize the chance it will pick up hum or interference.
The RC-1590 is supplied with an RR-AX100 remote control and must be
placed where the infrared signal from the remote can reach the front panel
Remote Sensor.

Cables

Be sure to keep the power cords, digital signal cables and regular audio
signal cables in your installation away from each other. This will minimize
the chance of the regular audio signal cables picking up noise or interference
from the power cords or digital cables. Using only high quality, shielded
cables will also help to prevent noise or interference from degrading the
sound quality of your system. If you have any questions see your authorized
Rotel dealer for advice about the best cable to use with your system.
The RR‑AX100 Remote Control
Some functions can be done with either the front panel controls, or the
supplied RR-AX100 remote control. When these operations are described,
the square call out numbers refer to the main unit, while the encircled letters
refer to the remote control.

Second Amplifier Remote Code

The factory setting is remote code 1. If you find that the remote is conflicting
with other Rotel amplifiers, you can change to remote code 2 with the
following steps.
1. From the remote control press Tuner
the remote control to send Audio Code 2.
L and 2 M at the same time to set
2. Point the remote at the unit and press 2
will show "Audio Custom Code 1 -> 2".
3. Repeat the above procedure and press "1" key instead of "2" to change
the unit back to Code 1.
NOTE: The remote control can be used to operate the basic functions of
Rotel tuners and CD players. Remote control buttons labeled
can be used to operate CD or Tuner functions in your system. For the
remote control to operate properly, make sure both the remote control
and the CD or Tuner are both in same remote code. For more information
please contact your authorized Rotel dealer.

Remote Control Batteries

Two AA size batteries (supplied) must be installed before the remote control
can be used. To install the batteries, remove the cover on the back of the
RR-AX100. Install the batteries as shown in the illustration in the battery
well. Test the control for proper operation, then replace the cover. When
the batteries become weak the remote control won't operate the RC-1590
consistently. Installing fresh batteries should eliminate the problem.

AC Power and Control

AC Power Input
s
Your RC-1590 is configured at the factory for the proper AC line voltage in
the country where you purchased it (either 120 volts AC or 230 volts AC
with a line frequency of either 50 Hz or 60 Hz). The AC line configuration
is noted on a decal on the back panel.
NOTE: Should you move your unit to another country, it may be possible
to reconfigure it for use on a different line voltage. Do not attempt to
perform this conversion yourself. Opening the enclosure of the unit
exposes you to dangerous voltages. Consult a qualified service person
or the Rotel factory service department for information.
NOTE: Some products are intended for sale in more than one country
and as such are supplied with more than one AC cord. Please only use
the one appropriate for your country/region.
The RC-1590 should be plugged directly into a 2-pin polarized wall outlet.
Do not use an extension cord. A heavy duty multi-tap power outlet strip may
be used if it (and the wall outlet) is rated to handle the current demanded
by the RC-1590 and all the other components connected to it.
If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time
such as a month long vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug the RC-
1590 (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away.

POWER Switch and Power Indicator

Press the front panel Power Switch button to turn the unit on. The Power
Indicator light is illuminated when the unit is on. Press the Power Switch
button again to turn the unit off.
When the power switch is in the ON position, the remote control ON and
OFF buttons may be used to activate the RC-1590. In Standby mode the
power LED remains illuminated, but the display is turned OFF.
NOTE: Place the self adhesive ring over the light surrounding the power
switch if the blue light is too bright.
