personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to moisture or water.
Do not expose the unit to dripping or splashing. Do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases,
on the unit. Do not allow foreign objects to get into the enclosure. If the unit is exposed to moisture,
or a foreign object gets into the enclosure, immediately disconnect the power cord from the wall. Take
the unit to a qualified service person for inspection and necessary repairs.
Read all the instructions before connecting or operating the component.
Keep this manual so you can refer to these safety instructions.
Heed all warnings and safety information in these instructions and on the product itself. Follow all
operating instructions.
Clean the enclosure only with a dry cloth or a vacuum cleaner.
Do not use this unit near water.
You must allow a minimum 10 cm or 4 inches of unobstructed clearance around the
unit.
Do not place the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that could block the ventilation openings.
If the unit is placed in a bookcase or cabinet, there must be ventilation of the cabinet to allow proper
cooling.
Keep the component away from radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other appliance that
produces heat.
WARNING: The rear panel power cord connector is the mains power disconnect device. The apparatus
must be located in an open area that allows access to the cord connector.
The unit must be connected to a power supply only of the type and voltage specified on the rear panel.

your safety. Do not defeat grounding and/or polarization safety provisions. If the supplied plug does
not fit your outlet, please consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. Do not use
extension cords.
The main plug of the power cord set is a disconnect device of the apparatus. In order to completely
disconnect the apparatus from the supply mains, the main plug of the power cord set should be
unplugged from the mains (AC) outlet. The stand-by LED indicator will not be lit up to show the power
cord is unplugged. The disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
Do not route the power cord where it will be crushed, pinched, bent, exposed to heat, or damaged
in any way. Pay particular attention to the power cord at the plug and where the cord exits the back
of the unit.
Main plug is used as the main disconnect device and shall remain ready accessible.
The power cord should be unplugged from the wall outlet during a lightning storm or if the unit is to
be left unused for a long period of time.
Use only accessories specified by the manufacturer.
Use only with a cart, stand, rack, bracket or shelf system recommended by Rotel. Use caution when
moving the unit in a stand or rack to avoid injury from a tip-over.
