Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold–between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct

pull on the plug, not the AC adaptor.

DO NOT handle the AC adaptor with wet
hands.

Internal heat

For safety, observe the following carefully:

• Make sure there is good ventilation the main
unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and
damage the System.

• DO NOT block the ventilation openings or
holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or
cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get
out.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the AC adaptor and consult your dealer before
operating any further.

DO NOT disassemble the System since there
are no user serviceable parts inside.

• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC adaptor from the wall outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC adaptor and consult
