Precautions

On safety

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

On power sources

•Before operating the amplifier, 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 amplifier.

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

•If you are not going to use the amplifier for a long time, be sure to disconnect the amplifier 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

•Place the amplifier in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup and prolong the life of the amplifier.

•Do not place the amplifier 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 amplifier.

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.

If you have any question or problem concerning your amplifier, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
