INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS and USER INFORMATION
Your new kW DM25 Transport is designed and built to provide trouble-free performance, but as
with all electronic devices it is necessary to observe a few precautions:
• Heed all warnings shown on the back of the product.
• Only connect the kW DM25 Transport to a mains outlet having the same voltage as marked
at the back of the unit.
• Always ensure that when disconnecting and reconnecting your audio equipment the mains
supply is switched off.
• Position the mains lead and signal interconnects where they are not likely to be walked on or
trapped by items placed on them.
• Do not use near water, or place water-filled containers on the Transport, for example, a
flower vase or potted plants. If water does spill inside, immediately pull out the mains
plug from the wall socket and inform your dealer, who should then check the unit
before further use. Entry of liquid into the Transport is dangerous, and may cause
electric shock or fire hazard.
• Do not place the unit near direct heat sources such as radiators, direct sunlight or other
equipment.
• Do not remove any covers or try to gain access to the inside. There are no internal
adjustments or fuses you can replace yourself. Refer all service work to an authorised
Musical Fidelity agent.
• Note: Unauthorised opening of the equipment will invalidate any warranty claim.
• Dust regularly with a soft cloth or soft brush but be careful when using cleaning or polishing
agents - they may harm the surface finish.
The electronics in modern hi-fi equipment is complex and may, therefore, be adversely affected or
damaged by lightning. For protection of your audio system during electrical storms, remove the
mains plugs and disconnect any aerial lead.
If after-sales service is required, to help your dealer identify the kW DM25 Transport please quote
the serial number located on the rear panel of the unit.
