IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Explanation of Graphical Symbols

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol
within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the pres­ence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the product.

1 Read these instructions.
2 Keep these instructions.
3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use this apparatus near water.
6 Clean only with dry cloth.
7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in

accordance with the manufacturer’s instruc­tions.

8 Do not install near any heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appa­ratus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polar-

ized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong. The wide blade or the third
prong are provided for your safety. If the pro­vided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult
an electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.

Precautions

— For safe operation —

WARNING

Installation

● Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type

stated in this Owner’s Manual or as marked on the unit. Failure
to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.

● Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become

wet. Fire or electrical shock may result.

● Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on

top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects inside this unit are a fire
and electrical shock hazard.

● Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the

power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock
hazard. In particular, be careful not to place heavy objects on a
power cord covered by a carpet.

Operation

● Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A dam-

aged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.

● Do not remove the unit’s cover. You could receive an electrical

shock. If you think internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is
necessary, contact your dealer.

● Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electrical shock

hazard.

● If lightning begins to occur, turn off the power switch of the unit

as soon as possible, and unplug the power cable plug from the
electrical outlet.

● If there is a possibility of lightning, do not touch the power cable

plug if it is still connected. Doing so may be an electrical shock
hazard.

In case an abnormality occurs during operation

● If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed),

ask your dealer for a replacement. Using the unit with a damaged
power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.

● Should this unit be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn the

power switch off, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and
contact your dealer. If you continue using the unit without heed­ing this instruction, fire or electrical shock may result.

● If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke, odor, or noise, or

if a foreign object or liquid gets inside the unit, turn it off imme­diately. Remove the power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your
dealer for repair. Using the unit in this condition is a fire and
electrical shock hazard.

CAUTION

Installation

● Keep this unit away from the following locations:

- Locations exposed to oil splashes or steam, such as near cook­ing stoves, humidifiers, etc.

- Unstable surfaces, such as a wobbly table or slope.

- Locations exposed to excessive heat, such as inside a car with
all the windows closed, or places that receive direct sunlight.

- Locations subject to excessive humidity or dust accumulation.

● Do not place the power cord close to a heater. It may melt, caus-

ing fire or electrical shock.

● Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it from an AC out-

let. Never pull the cord. A damaged power cord is a potential fire
and electrical shock hazard.

● Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a

potential electrical shock hazard.

● This unit has ventilation holes at the front and rear to prevent the

internal temperature rising too high. Do not block them. Blocked
ventilation holes are a fire hazard.
In particular, do not

- place the unit on its side or upside down,

- place the unit in any poorly-ventilated location such as a
bookcase or closet (other than on the dedicated rack),

- cover the unit with a table cloth or place it on a carpet or bed.

● Allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation.

This should be: 5 cm at the sides, 10 cm behind, and 10 cm
above.
If the airflow is not adequate, the unit will heat up inside and
may cause a fire.

● To mount several of these units in a standard EIA rack, refer to

the rack mounting instructions on page 11.

● To relocate the unit, turn the power switch off, remove the power

plug from the AC outlet, and remove all connecting cables. Dam­aged cables may cause fire or electrical shock.

Operation

● Use only speaker cables when connecting speakers to amplifier

outputs. Using other types of cables is a fire hazard.

● Turn off all musical instruments, audio equipment, and speakers

when connecting to this unit. Use the correct connecting cables
and connect as specified.

● Always lower the volume control to minimum before turning on

the power to this unit. A sudden blast of sound may damage your
hearing.

● Do not use this amplifier for any purpose other than driving loud-

speakers.

● If you know you will not use this unit for a long period of time,

such as when going on vacation, remove the power plug from the
AC outlet. Leaving it connected is a potential fire hazard.
