To offset heat generated by the unit, it is necessary to provide ample ventilation around the unit. Avoid blocking or impeding the ventilation holes on the unit. To prevent unnecessary problems, install the unit in a place free from any vibrations, direct sunlight, humidity or dust circulation.

3. Prevent liquids or other materials to enter cabinet

If the unit gets wet or any foreign material enters the amplifier cabinet, immediately disconnect the AC power cord and consult your dealer or qualified technician.
