- 31 -
Installing the unit in Kitchen
1. Mark the position of the 4 holes by using the supplied paper template. Drill four holes with diameter of 8mm. You can use the connecting steel panel to check the holes.
2. If the cabinet door overhangs the shelf and obstructs the unit, adjust the unit or the shelf height for clearance.
3. Lock the connecting steel panel to the unit with the screws.
4. As shown in the above figures, install the unit with the supplied mounting screws and spacers step by step.
Quick hints:
z Since the unit is rather heavy, be careful while doing the installation work. z To reduce risk of fire, do not place any heating or cooking appliance beneath the
unit, especially while the LCD screen is open for viewing.
z Mount the unit so that its AC power cord can be plugged directly to a wall outlet.
Do not use a converter or extension cord.
z Be sure that the AC power cord has no slack when the player is working,
because the cord acts as an FM wire antenna. If the AC power cord has some slack, wind it up to the cord hook until the cord has no slack.
z The unit has a built-in ferrite bar antenna for AM radio reception. Check the
condition of AM reception before fixing in position.
z Install the unit as far as possible from other electrical devices such as:
refrigerators, microwave oven, fluorescent lamp, etc.
