Caution
Incorrect use of batteries may result in such
hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the
following precautions:
• Never use new and old batteries together.
• Insert the plus and minus sides of the
batteries properly according to the marks
in the battery case.
• Batteries with the same shape may have
different voltages. Do not use different
batteries together.
• When disposing of used batteries, please
comply with governmental regulations or
environmental public instruction's rules
that apply in your country or area.
• Do not use or store batteries in direct
sunlight or other excessively hot place,
such as inside a car or near a heater. This
can cause batteries to leak, overheat,
explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the
life or performance of batteries.

Installing the receiver

• When installing this unit, make sure to put
it on a level and stable surface.
Don't install it on the following places:
– on a color TV (the screen may distort)
– near a cassette deck (or close to a device
that gives off a magnetic field). This may
interfere with the sound.
– in direct sunlight
– in damp or wet areas
– in extremely hot or cold areas
– in places where there is vibration or other
movement
– in places that are very dusty
– in places that have hot fumes or oils (such
as a kitchen)

Ventilation

When installing this unit, make sure to leave
space around the unit for ventilation to improve
heat dispersal (at least 60 cm at the top). If
not enough space is provided between the
unit and walls or other equipment, heat will
build up inside, interfering with performance
and/or causing malfunctions.
Receiver
Slot and openings in the cabinet are provided
for ventilation and to protect the equipment
from overheating. To prevent fire hazard, do
not place anything directly on top of the unit,
make sure the openings are never blocked or
covered with items (such as newspapers,
table-cloths and curtains), and do not operate
the equipment on thick carpet or a bed.
