• Note that the amplifier is not completely disconnected
from the AC mains service unless the mains power cord is
removed from the amplifier or the mains outlet.
• Free flow of air behind the loudspeaker is necessary to
maintain sufficient cooling.
• Do not obstruct airflow around the loudspeakers.
• Note that the amplifier is not completely disconnected
from the AC mains service unless the mains power cord is
removed from the amplifier or the mains outlet.
