Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and cause a fi re.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other places where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fi re or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug fi rmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain fl ammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.

•Keep your speakers at least 10mm away from the system for proper ventilation.
•These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not place them near televisions, personal computers or other devices easily infl uenced by magnetism.
•You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play sound at high levels over extended periods.
•Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.
–When playing distorted sound.
–When adjusting the sound quality.
Caution
•Use the speakers only with the recommended system. Failure to do so can damage the amplifier and speakers, and can cause fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage occurs or if a sudden change in performance is apparent.
