Check for Moisture

Just as moisture can form on the inside of windows on a cold day, it can also form on the inside of your audio system causing it to malfunction.

If there is any moisture inside the system, the system may not operate properly. In this case, you are sug- gested to disconnect the power to the unit and wait for about 30 minutes for the moisture to evaporate.

Choosing System Location

It is recommended to follow these guidelines when setting up your system:

•Choose a solid, level surface. Don’t place on surfaces like carpet or foam rubber.

•Choose a location away from direct sunlight, radia- tor, air ducts and sources of heat.

•Avoid locations subject to moisture, mechanical vibration, shock or excessive dust.

•Ensure that the location is adequately ventilated, as it is essential to protect the unit from internal heat build-up.
