recycled and reused if disassembled by a
specialized company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.

Safety Information

● Before operating the system, check that the

operating voltage indicated on the typeplate of
your system is identical with the voltage of your
local power supply. If not, please consult your
dealer.

● Place the system on a flat, hard and stable

surface.

● Place the system in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.

● The ventilation should not be impeded by

covering the ventilation openings with items,
such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.

● Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to

excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

● No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,

should be placed on the apparatus.

● No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall

be placed on the apparatus.

● Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the

AC power plug can be reached easily.

● Where the Mains plug is used as the disconnect

device, the disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.

● The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping

or splashing.

● When the system is switched to Standby

mode, it is still consuming some power.

To disconnect the system from the
power supply completely, remove the AC
power plug from the wall socket.
