Read this before operation

<Be careful to avoid injury when moving the unit, on account of its weight. Get someone to help you if necessary.

<To protect easily scratched furniture, you may stick the felt supplied with the unit to the feet.

<As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.

The ventilation holes should not be covered. Make sure there is at least 20 cm (8”) of space above and at least 5 cm (2”) of space on each side of the unit. Do NOT place anything on top of the unit.

<The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this matter, consult an electrician.

<Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.

<Do not place the unit on the amplifier/receiver.

<Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into the unit, contact your dealer or service company.

<When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.

<Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

<Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

Maintenance

If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or use diluted neutral cleaning liquid. Be sure to remove any fluid completely. Do not use thinner, benzine (naphtha) or alcohol as they may damage the surface of the unit.

Speaker Connection

CAUTION:

<Switch off the power to all equipment before making connection.

<Read the instructions of each component you intend to use with this unit.

<Be sure to insert each plug securely. To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the signal interconnection cables together with the AC power cord or speaker cables.

Note:

<Use commercially available speaker cables.

Ideally, left and right speaker cables should be the same length. And the length of cables should be as short as possible for better sound quality.

<The black speaker terminals are – (negative).

Generally, the + side of the speaker cable is marked to make it distinguishable from the – side of the cable. Connect this marked side to the + terminal and the unmarked side to the black – terminal.

<The metal portions of the two separate wires should not touch or an electrical short can occur. Shorted wires can create a fire hazard or induce a failure in your equipment.
