CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could

result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.

When Installing the Unit

•Never plug in nor remove the power supply plug with wet hands, as doing so may cause electric shock.

•When unplugging the power supply cord, be sure to grasp the power supply plug; never pull on the cord itself. Operating the unit with a damaged power supply cord may cause a fire or electric shock.

•Do not block the ventilation slots in the unit's cover. Doing so may cause heat to build up inside the unit and result in fire.

•Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric shock.

•To avoid electric shocks, be sure to unplug the unit's power supply cord when connecting speakers.

•Be sure to follow the instructions below when rack-mounting the unit. Failure to do so may cause a fire or personal injury.

·Install the equipment rack on a stable, hard floor. Fix it with anchor bolts or take other arrangements to prevent it from falling down.

·When connecting the unit's power cord to an AC outlet, use the AC outlet with current capacity allowable to the unit.

·No rack-mounting screws are supplied with the unit. Separately prepare the appropriate screws for the rack.
