Unpacking and Installation

The carton and shipping materials used
to protect your new AVR41 during ship-
ment were specially designed to cushion
it from shock and vibration. We suggest
that you save the carton and packing
materials for use in shipping if you move
or should the unit ever need repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in
storage, you may wish to flatten it. This is
done by carefully removing any staples
that attach the carton flaps to one
another, and then slitting the tape
covering the seams. Fold the carton down
to a more two dimensional appearance.
Packing materials that cannot be
collapsed should be saved along with the
carton in a plastic bag.
Important Information
3
If you do not wish to save the packaging
materials, please note that the carton and
other sections of the shipping protection
are recyclable. Please respect the environ-
ment and discard those materials at a
local recycling centre.
When positioning your AVR41 in its final
location, make certain that any shelf or
stand is capable of supporting its weight,
and that there is adequate ventilation on
all sides, as well as on the top and bot-
tom. Do not place CDs, record jackets,
owner's manuals, or other paper on top
of, or beneath the unit. This will block air
flow, causing degraded performance and
a possible fire hazard. If the unit is to be
enclosed in a cabinet or rack, make cer-
tain that there is adequate air circulation,
with a means provided for hot air to exit,
and for cool air to be brought in.
