All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5. Water and moisture.

6. Accessories.

Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

7. Wall or ceiling mounting.

Product should be mounted on a wall or ceiling only when and as recommended by the manufacturer.

8. Ventilation.

Cooling fins on the rear of the amplifier are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of the product, and to protect it from overheating. Fins must not be blocked or covered. The fins should never be blocked by placing prod- uct on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This prod- uct should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

9. Heat.

Product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products that produce heat. If placed near an amplifier, check with manufacturer for applicability.

10. Power sources.

This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company.

11. Grounding or polarization.

This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of this polarized plug.

12. Power cord protection.

Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

13. Cleaning.

Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

14. Nonuse periods.

The cord of the product should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for long periods of time.

15. Lightning.

For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon- nect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

16. Overloading.

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17. Object and liquid entry.

Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

a)Power supply cord or plug has been damaged.

b)Objects have fallen into, or liquid has spilled into, the product, or

c)Product has been exposed to rain or water, or

Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation; or

e)Product has been dropped, or enclosure damaged; or

f)Product does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.

19. Attachments.

Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer as these may cause hazards.

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

21. Safety check.

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that product is in proper operating condition.
