IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read and observe the following safety points at all times.

WARNING – Power Sources

Do not plug your Monster Home Theatre Music Reference Power Amplifier into a power outlet that differs from the source indicated for safe use. If you don’t know the type of electrical power that is supplied to your home, please consult your local power company or a qualified electrician.

WARNING – Power Cord Safety

A.When routing your Monster Home Theatre Music Reference Power Amplifier AC power cord, do not place it near heavy foot traffic areas (e.g., hallways, doorways, and kitchen floors). Do not create a trip hazard with the power cord.

B.If the power cord protective jacket begins to rip or fray, exposing the internal wiring, shielding, etc., disconnect it from the power source and discontinue use of the Monster Home Theatre Music Reference Power Amplifier immediately.

WARNING – Grounding and Polarization

A.Do not force your amplifier plug into an outlet that is not designed to accept grounded 3-prong AC plugs. This plug is designed to be inserted into a grounded-type outlet only. If this plug doesn’t fit directly inside your outlet, do not attempt to force it into the outlet. Never attempt to dismantle the plug in any way (or to alter a power cord). If you have questions about grounding, consult your local power company or a qualified electrician.

B.If you use rooftop devices such as satellite dishes, antennas, or any other component with wire that directly

or indirectly connects to your MPA 5150, be sure the wires are properly grounded. This protects against voltage surges and static charges.
