Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high

temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions

can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the

unit’s service life.

Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion

and unwanted acoustical effects.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit

and cause a ﬁ re.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when

setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged.

Poor connection and lead damage can cause ﬁ re or electric shock. Do

not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug ﬁ rmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC

mains lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric

shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric

shock or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or

malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the

power supply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain

ﬂ ammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,

indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not

covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead

and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock

or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or

reconstructed by unqualiﬁ ed persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power

source if it is not to be used for a long time.
