IMPORTANT NOTES

Power Supply

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet

that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter or a motor (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner). Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise lter between this unit and the electrical outlet.

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long

hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.

Placement

• Using the unit near power ampliers (or other

equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.

• This unit may interfere with radio and television

reception. Do not use this unit in the vicinity of such receivers.

• Noise may be produced if wireless communications

devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them o.

• When moved from one location to another where the

temperature and/or humidity is very dierent, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

• Depending on the material and temperature of the

surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface.

• Do not place containers or anything else containing

liquid on top of this unit. Also, whenever any liquid has been spilled on the surface of this unit, be sure to promptly wipe it away using a soft, dry cloth.
