IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

PRECAUTIONS

Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely before operating the unit. Be sure to keep the Operating Instructions for future reference. All warnings and cautions in the Operating Instructions and on the unit should be strictly followed, as well as the safety suggestions below.

INSTALLATION

1Water and Moisture - Do not use this unit near water, such as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.

2Heat - Do not use this unit near sources of heat, including heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat. It also should not be placed in temperatures less than 5°C (41°F) or greater than 35°C (95°F).

3Mounting surface - Place the unit on a flat, even surface.

4Ventilation - The unit should be situated with adequate space around it so that proper ventilation is assured. Allow 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side. Do not place on a bed, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings. Do not install the unit in a bookcase cabinet, or airtight rack where ventilation may be impeded.

5Objects and liquid entry - Take care that objects or liquids do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings.

6Carts and stands - When placed or mounted on a stand or cart, the

unit should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the unit and cart to overturn or fall.

7Wall or ceiling mounting - The unit should not be mounted on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the Operating Instructions.

WARNING!

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRONIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE

This product is manufactured to comply with the radio interference requirements of EEC DIRECTIVE 89/68/EEC and 73/23/EEC

ELECTRIC POWER

1Power Sources - Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the unit.

2Polarization - As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. Avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.

3AC power cord - When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself. Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock. Power cords should be routed to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket. Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.

4Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.

5When not in use - The primary method of isolating the turntable from the mains supply is to disconnect the mains plug. Ensure that the mains plug remains accessible at all times. Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more.
