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.
Placement of speakers
Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel orientation is necessary.
Use only the supplied speakers.
The combination of the main unit and speakers provide the best sound. Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.
Note
• Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.
• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not place them near televisions, personal computers or other devices easily infl uenced by magnetism.
• You cannot take the front net off the speakers.
Caution
• Use the speakers only with the recommended system. Failure to do so can damage the amplifi er and speakers, and can cause fi re. Consult a qualifi ed service person if damage occurs or if a sudden change in performance is apparent.
• Do not attach these speakers to walls or ceilings.
