Important Notes
Power supply
* Do not use this instrument on the
same power circuit with any device
that will generate line noise (such as
an electric motor or variable lighting
system).
Before connecting the RD-100 to
other devices, turn off the power to all
units. This will help prevent malfunc-
tions and/or damage to speakers or
other devices.
Placement
Using the RD-100 near power ampli-
fiers (or other equipment containing
large power transformers) may
induce hum. To alleviate the problem,
change the orientation of this unit; or
move it farther away from the source
of interference.
This instrument may interfere with
radio and television reception. Do not
use it in the vicinity of such receivers.
Do not expose the RD-100 to direct
sunlight, place it near devices that
radiate heat, leave it inside an
enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject
it to temperature extremes. Excessive
heat can deform or discolor the
instrument.
Maintenance
For everyday cleaning wipe the
RD-100 with a soft, dry cloth or one
that has been slightly dampened with
water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a
mild, non-abrasive detergent. After-
wards, be sure to wipe the instrument
thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use benzene, thinners, alcohol
or solvents of any kind, to avoid the
possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation,
Additional precautions
Use a reasonable amount of care
when using the instrument's buttons,
other controls, and jacks/connectors.
Rough handling can lead to malfunc-
tions.
+ Never strike or apply strong pressure
to the display.
*When connecting/disconnecting all
cables, grasp the connector itself—
never pull on the cable. This way you
will avoid causing shorts, or damage
to the cable's internal elements.
A small amount of heat will radiate
from the instrument during normal
operation. This is perfectly normal.
°
To avoid disturbing your neighbors,
try to keep the instrument's volume at
reasonable levels. You may prefer to
use headphones, so you do not need
to be concerned about those around
you (especially when it is late at
night).
When you need to transport the
instrument, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in.
Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials, or a
flightcase.
