First Things First
Before using your KOD-1000, there are a few things
you should do and know:
• Check to see that your local power outlets supply
the correct voltage for the AC adapter.
• Except for the hard drive compartment, do not open
the device as there are no user-serviceable parts inside.
For repairs, contact the local distributor, an authorized
service center or Acesonic's U.S. headquarters.
• When the system will not be used for a long time,
disconnect the power plug from the wall and remove
all connecting cables for proper storage.
