SAFETY GUIDELINES
This appliance was produced under strict quality controls.
It complies with all established international safety standards. Nonetheless, the following instructions should be fully read and observed in order to prevent any hazard:
Do not open the appliance! Risk of electric shock!
There are no parts in the appliance that require maintenance by the user.
Maintenance/Alterations
All equipment that is connected to the domestic mains voltage can be dangerous to the user if not handled properly. Leave maintenance work to qualified profes- sionals. The product is only permitted for connection to AC 230Volt/50Hz, for earthed sockets and use in enclosed areas. Altering the product or manipulating its serial number voids the warranty. After a fault, leave the appliance’s fuse to be replaced only by a professional with one of the same kind.
Power Cable Connection
Always pull the plug and never the power cable if you want to disconnect the appliance from the mains power. Make sure when setting up the appli- ance that the power cable is not squashed, severely bent or damaged by sharp edges. Do not touch the power lead with wet or damp hands. Use the power cable supplied or another one from Vincent.
| ON |
Switching Off | OFF |
Switch the appliance off every time before you con- nect or remove other components or loudspeakers, disconnect or connect it to the mains power, leave it unused for a longer period or want to clean its outsi- de. On all amplifiers and receivers, wait approx. 1 minute after this before disconnecting or reconnecting the cable.
Moisture/Heat/Vibration
Contact of electrically operated equipment with liquids, moisture, rain or water vapour is dangerous for such equipment and the user and must be avoi-
ded without fail. Take care that no liquids or objects get inside the appliance (ventilation slots etc.).
It must be disconnected from the mains power imme- diately and examined by a professional if this hap- pens. Never expose the appliance to high tempera- tures (direct sunshine) or strong vibration.
Heat
All amplifiers generate heat as part of their design. Make sure that a gap of 5 cm remains around the appliance and that the surrounding air can circula- te (do not install in enclosed cupboards). Vents must not be covered up.
Volume
The maximum tolerable volume is always reached well below the maximum possible setting on the amplifier. Be careful with the volume setting, therefore, in order to prevent damage to hearing. So that you do not expose yourself to high volumes unintentionally, always set to a low level before changing the input channel.
Cleaning
Pull out the power plug before cleaning the outside of the product. Whenever possible, use a soft, lint- free cloth that has been dampened. Do not use abra- sives, solvents, thinners, flammable chemicals, polis- hes and other cleaning products that leave marks.
Batteries
Take note of the instructions for using batteries in the chapter "Remote Control".
