WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Do not install the appliance in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus. The nameplate is located on the bottom exterior.
Precautions
On power sources
•Install this system so that the AC power cord (mains) can be unplugged from the wall socket immediately in the event of trouble.
On placement
•Do not place the system in locations that are hot and subject to direct sunlight, dusty, very humid, or extremely cold.
•Use caution when placing the system on a specially treated (waxed, oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.
•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup.
•Do not place the system on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.
•Do not install the system near heat sources such as radiators, or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
•Do not install the system in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.
•Position the Sony DVD Home Theatre System (DAV) and surround amplifier away from each other.
•Keep the system away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.
•Do not place heavy objects on the system.
•If you use more than one set of these systems (Sony DVD Home Theatre System (DAV) and WAHTSD1), position them away from each other to avoid cross talk.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinets with a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution or water. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzene.
Safety
•If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by the cord.
