NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
●Handling and Maintenance
•Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the device, since this might discolor the cabinet.
•When cleaning the device, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
•Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in ambient temperature-when the device is moved from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the device while condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that condensation might have occurred, leave the device for several hours until the condensation has completely dried out.
•Be sure to observe the amplifier’s rated load impedance (see SPECIFICATIONS), particularly when connecting speakers in parallel. Connecting an impedance load outside the amplifier’s rated range can damage the amplifier.
•When connecting the speakers with high impedance, be sure that the output total of each speaker does not exceed the rated output of the power amplifier.
•ABOUT THE PROTECTION CIRCUIT
This speaker system has an internal protection circuit that shuts off the speaker unit when an excessive input signal is applied.
If the speaker unit emits no sound, reduce the volume level of the amplifier immediately.
The sound will return automatically in several seconds.
•Place the speaker on a flat and smooth surface.
