IMPORTANT NOTES

291b

In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 2,

3 and 4, please read and observe the following:

Power Supply

301

Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power

supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.

307

Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions

and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

308

Although the LEDs are switched off when the POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the unit has been completely disconnected from the source of power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug should be one that is within easy reach.

Placement

351

Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or

move it farther away from the source of interference.

352a

• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.

352b

Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a

greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.

354b

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of time.

Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355b

When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation

has completely evaporated.

356

Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can

discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.

359

Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish.

Maintenance

401a

For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe

the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

402

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

553

Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks

and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

556

When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s

internal elements.

557

• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation.

558a

To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about

those around you (especially when it is late at night).

559a

When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,

you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

921

To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off

the power on all devices before making any connections.

941

Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

1.Turn on the device connected to the CUBE-60’s input jack.

2.Turn on the CUBE-60.

3.Switch on any equipment connected to the CUBE-60’s LINE OUT and RECORDING OUT/PHONES jacks.

Turn off the devices in the reverse order to which they were switched on.

Wrap the power cord around the cord hook when trans- porting or storing the unit.

Do not insert hands, fingers, etc, into the openings in the unit's rear panel. In particular, if the unit is to used in households with small children, always provide adult supervision to ensure that children keep their hands and feet out of these openings.
