Precautions

On safety

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the system and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

When disconnecting the mains leads, do not touch the metallic part of the jacks or plugs.

Do not put any object into the holes on the set (fan ventilation holes, jacks, etc.). Electric shock may result.

On power sources

The system is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the system itself has been turned off.

If you are not going to use the system for a long time, be sure to disconnect the system from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

Do not disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) while the system is in use.

On placement

Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.

At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction. However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do not place the system in a confined space where ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.

Do not block the ventilation holes for the cooling fan by putting anything on the system. The system is equipped with a high power amplifier. If the ventilation holes are blocked, the system can overheat and malfunction.

Do not place the system on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilation holes.

Do not install the system in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.
