SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifi ers)
that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with
one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
thrid prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not fi t into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specifi ed by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specifi ed
by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a
cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service personnel. Servicing
is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as when the power-supply cord or plug has been
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into
the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing,
and no object fi lled with liquids, such as vases, shall be
placed on the apparatus.
16. This apparatus has been designed with Class-I construction
and must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a
protective earthing connection (the third grounding prong).
17. This apparatus has been equipped with a single-pole rocker-
style AC mains power switch. This switch is located on the
front panel and should remain readily accessible to the user.
18. This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class
B (whichever is applicable) limits for radio noise
emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the radio
interference regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
ATTENTION —Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits
radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils
numériques de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le
règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere
des communications du Canada.
18. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause
permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in
susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly
everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to suffi ciently
intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specifi ed the permissible noise level exposures shown in the
following chart.
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these
permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. To
ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high
sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons
exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound
pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment
is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or
over the ears must be worn when operating the equipment
in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in
excess of the limits set forth here.
WARNING — To reduce the risk of fi re or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
