AC CONNECTION

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet having 120v, 60Hz only. Connecting this unit to other power sources may damage the unit.

NOTES:

*The AC polarized to help minimize the possibility of electric shock. If the polarized plug does not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet,

do not file or cut the wide blade; it is the user`s responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.

*The power cord should be unplugged from the outlet

when the unit is not going to be used for a long period of time.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

Electronic products of this kind should never be subjected to extreme temperatures or high hu- midity. For instance, this set should not be placed in bathing areas or around stoves and radiators.

Keep this unit away from radiators and other heat sources.

Keep this unit away from naked flame source, such as lighted candle.

Do not expose this unit to dropping or splashing and no objects filled with liquid, such asvase, shall be placed on it the apparatus.

If necessary, clean the unit with a piece of cloth dampened with water only (Be sure the AC Po- wer Cord is disconnected from the Mains). Never use a polish or a strong detergent, as this will damage the finish of the cabinet.

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet the highest international stand- ards, but, like any electrical apparatus, which is operated at mains voltage, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured. This is particularly important w- ith audio equipment.

DO . . . read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.

DO . . . ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Check that the mains fuse rating is correct.

DO . . . always consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. He is the best person to advise you.

DO NOT... obstruct the necessary all-round ventilation - especially DON'T stand the set close to curtains or on soft furnishing such as carpets. Overheating can cause unnecessary damage and shorten the life of the set.

Remember that to obtain the best performance and lasting satisfaction from your equipment, have it regularly maintained by a reliable service organization. Ensure that all the family corre- ctly uses it. ABOVE ALL: Never let children push anything into holes or slots in the case - this could result in an electric shock; Meyer guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind - it is better to be safe than sorry!
