Protection against
liquids and heat
1.2
The ULTIMA PRE 3 is not
protected against liquids
of any kind. Never place
containers of liquid on the unit,
or allow it to come into contact
with moisture or liquids, doing so
could result in electrocution or
damage.
Be aware that liquids, including
water which has dried, can leave
minerals that can aect the
PCB and other components,
which could eventually lead to
oxidisation and short-circuiting.
If the ULTIMA PRE 3 comes into
contact with moisture or liquids,
immediately disconnect it from
the power supply and connected
equipment, and contact Chord
Electronics for further advice.
The device
has internal thermal
protection which will
shut the unit down in the event
of excessive temperatures being
reached. Never operate the
device near sources of
heat or naked flames, as this
will decrease the lifespan of the
internal components. Avoid
operating the device in an area
of direct sunlight, or on top
of significant heat-producing
devices.
Note: it is entirely normal for the
device to become warm
during use, particularly if
stacked. If necessary, switch the
unit o or consider dierent
placement.
