Maintenance
Your product is designed and manufactured to ensure a minimum of maintenance. Use a soft cloth for routine
exterior cleaning. Never use benzine, thinner or other solvents.
Product Servicing
If the suggestions in the charts do not solve the problem, we recommend that you take it to your nearest au-
thorized Panasonic Servicenter. The product should be serviced only by a qualified technician.
Replacing the Fuse
Use fuses of the same specified rating (15 A). Using different substitutes or fuses with higher ratings, or con-
necting the unit directly without a fuse, could cause fire or damage to the stereo unit.
If the replacement fuse fails, contact your nearest Panasonic Servicenter for service.
