4. SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

This equipment, being a high audio output power ampli- fier, has a hazardous energy at its speaker terminal. Please be sure to make an appropriate speaker connection ac- cording to the following procedure:

-Confirm that the power switch of the equipment is at "OFF" position. If it is at "ON", turn it to "OFF" position to con- nect a speaker cable.

-Use a speaker cable with the flame retardant rating of type SPT12 or more.

-For bare wire connections, strip the insulation off no more than 3/8" at the speaker terminal connection of speaker cable, and twist the exposed wire. For banana-type plugs or spade terminals, follow the instructions of the connec- tor manufacturer.

-Connect speakers in correct polarity, according to the indication for the polarity of speaker terminals. For bare wire or spade terminal connections, first loosen the speaker terminal by turning in a counter-clockwise direction, insert the bare wire or spade terminal, then re-tighten by turning the terminal clockwise.

-Prevent any stress from being applied to the speaker cable connected to the speaker terminal.

-Don't touch the speaker terminals during operation.

6. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

This section describes the car and maintenance tasks that must be performed to optimize the operation of your marantz equipment.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT EXTERNAL SURFACES

The exterior finish of your unit will last indefinitely with proper care and cleaning. Never use scouring pads, steel wool, scouring powders or harsh chemical agents (e.g. lye solution), alcohol, thinners, benzine insecticide or other volatile substances as these will mar the finish of the equip- ment.

Likewise, never use cloths containing chemical substances. If the equipment gets dirty, wipe the external surface with a soft, lint free cloth.

If the equipment becomes heavily soiled:

-Dilute some washing up liquid in water, in a ratio of one part detergent to six parts water.

-Dip a soft, lint free cloth in the solution and wring the cloth out until it is damp.

-Wipe the equipment with the damp cloth.

-Dry the equipment by wiping it with a dry cloth.
