CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE
COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended
to alert the user to the presence of important operating
and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into
your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/
apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or
the like.
Rechargeable battery precautions
•Do not toss the rechargeable battery into a fire, and do not heat up the battery.
Doing so could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery
rupture.
•Do not subject the rechargeable battery to strong impact forces, such as
stabbing it with sharp objects (a nail, etc.), tapping it with a hammer, or
stepping on it. Doing so could cause battery heat generation, battery fires,
and battery rupture.
•Do not place foreign objects inside the Portable Speaker Dock. Doing so could
cause fires and electrical shocks.
•Do not charge, use, or place the Portable Speaker Dock in high-temperature
locations such as near heaters and stove burners, in areas exposed to direct
sunlight, or inside a car on a hot day. Doing so could cause battery heat
generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.
Such actions could also affect the performance and shorten the life of the
internal rechargeable battery.
•Stop using the Portable Speaker Dock immediately, and contact the sales
outlet or DENON in the event that abnormal odors or heat generation occurs
while using, charging, or storing the Portable Speaker Dock, or if other
abnormalities such as discoloration, etc., are detected.
•Always observe the following precautions:
•Do not place the Portable Speaker Dock in a microwave oven or in a high-
pressure container.
•Do not place the Portable Speaker Dock on top of an electromagnetic cooker.
•Do not attempt to recharge the internal rechargeable battery by connecting
it to a power outlet or a car's cigarette lighter socket.
•Strictly observe the recharging procedure and conditions specified by
DENON.
•If fluid should leak from the rechargeable battery and get into the eyes, do not
rub the eyes. Instead, rinse the eyes thoroughly with tap water, etc., and see
a doctor without delay for treatment. Leaving the eyes untreated could cause
vision impairment.
•Do not use the Portable Speaker Dock near medical devices, automatic doors,
or fire alarms, etc. Signals from the Portable Speaker Dock could interfere with
the operation of those devices, possibly causing malfunctions and accidents.
•If recharging fails to complete even though the prescribed recharging time
period has elapsed, stop the recharging operation. Continuing to recharge the
battery could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.
CAUTION:
To completely disconnect this product from the mains, disconnect the plug
from the wall socket outlet.
The mains plug is used to completely interrupt the power supply to the unit
and must be within easy access by the user.

Required system
n Broadband internet connection
n Modem
Device that connects to the broadband circuit and conducts
communications on the Internet.
A type that is integrated with a router is also available.
n Router
When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped
with the following functions:
•Built-in DHCP server
This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.
•Built-in 100BASE-TX switch
When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching
hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater.
•When using with a wireless LAN, prepare a broadband router
with built-in access point.
n Ethernet cable (supplied)
(CAT-5 or greater recommended)
•Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is available at
retailer.
•The normal shielded-type Ethernet cable is recommended. If a
flat-type cable or unshielded-type cable is used, other devices
could be affected by noise.
•If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network
settings are made manually, make the settings at “When “DHCP” is
set to “Off” on your router” (vpage10).
•With this unit, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP functions
to make the network settings automatically.
•When using this unit with the broadband router’s DHCP function
enabled, this unit automatically performs the IP address setting and
other settings.
When using this unit connected to a network with no DHCP function,
make the settings for the IP address, etc., at “When “DHCP” is set
to “Off” on your router” (vpage10).
•When setting manually, check the setting contents with the network
administrator.
NOTE
•A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet.
No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband
connection to the Internet.
•The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an
ISP or a computer shop for details.
•DENON assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any
communication errors or troubles resulting from customer’s network
environment or connected devices.
•This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible router
is required if you have a contract for a type of line set by PPPoE.
•Do not connect an NETWORK connector directly to the LAN port/
Ethernet connector on your computer.
•To listen to audio streaming, use a router that supports audio
streaming.
