Precautions
On safety
• Do not disassemble the cabinet as this may result in
an electrical shock. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel only.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the amplifier and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources
• Before operating the amplifier, check that the
operating voltage of the amplifier is identical with
your local power supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the
amplifier.
• The amplifier is not disconnected from the AC
power source as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the amplifier itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the amplifier for a long
time, be sure to disconnect the amplifier from the
wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On placement
• Place the amplifier in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat built-up and prolong the
life of the amplifier.
• Do not place the amplifier near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or
mechanical shock.
• Do not place anything on top of the cabinet that
might block the ventilation holes and cause
malfunctions.
On operation
Before connecting other components, be sure to turn off
and unplug the amplifier.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

Do the following:
– keep the microphone away from the speakers
during use.
– lower the master volume.
– lower the microphone volume or echo level.
– turn off the microphone when connecting it.
– set the master volume and microphone volume as
low as possible before connecting the microphone.
