Precautions

On safety

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

On power sources

• Before operating the receiver, check
that the operating voltage is identical
with your local power supply. The
operating voltage is indicated on the
nameplate at the rear of the receiver.
• This unit is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it
is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the unit itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the receiver
for a long time, be sure to disconnect
the receiver from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• One blade of the plug is wider than
the other for the purpose of safety and
will fit into the wall outlet only one
way. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, contact your
dealer.
• AC power cord must be changed only
at the qualified service shop.

On placement

• Do not install the appliance in a
confined space, such as a bookcase or
built-in cabinet.
• Place the receiver in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
buildup and prolong the life of the
receiver.
• Do not place the receiver near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical
shock.
• Do not place anything on top of the
cabinet that might block the
ventilation holes and cause
malfunctions.

On operation

• Before connecting other components,
be sure to turn off and unplug the
receiver.

On cleaning

• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls
with a soft cloth slightly moistened
with a mild detergent solution. Do not
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
