Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct
sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive
vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and
other components, thereby shortening the unit's service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid
distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload
the unit and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully
when setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC
is used.
Power cord protection
Ensure the AC power cord is connected correctly and not
damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire
or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on
the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the
AC power cord can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause
electric shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause
electric shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect
the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain
flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is
interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any
other problem that is not covered in these instructions occurs,
disconnect the AC power cord and contact your dealer or
an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to
the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or
reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the
power source if it is not to be used for a long time.
