For your safety

For your safety, and to avoid unnecessary damage to your unit, please read and follow the safety instructions below:

Intended use and ambient conditions

This unit is intended exclusively for playback of audio signals. It must not be used in rooms with a high level of humidity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or a high dust concentration. The manufacturer's warranty is only valid for use in the specified permissible environment.

If the unit is used outdoors, make sure that it is protected from moisture (rain, dripping water and splashing water or dew). High humidity and dust concentrations lead to leakage currents in the device. This can result in a shock hazard by touching it or even fire.

If you have moved the unit out of the cold into a warm environment, leave it switched off for about an hour because of a possible formation of condensation.

Do not place objects containing liquids on top of the unit. Protect the device against dripping and splashing water. Candles or naked flames must be kept away from the unit at all times to prevent it from catching fire.

Never place the device in a location where it is exposed to vibrations. This can lead to material overload.

Power supply

Incorrect voltages can damage the unit. This device may only be connected to a power supply with the voltage and frequency indicated on the type plate using the supplied mains cable. The mains plug of the unit must be easily accessible so that the device can be disconnected from the mains at any time. When unplugging the unit from the mains, pull at the connector body and not at the cable.

Lay the mains cable so that it cannot be damaged. The connecting cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stood on or exposed to chemicals; the latter also applies to the unit as a whole. A mains cable with damaged insulation can cause electric shocks and poses a fire risk.

Supervision

Do not allow children to use the device without supervision or to play in the immediate vicinity of the device. The device could tip over, be pushed off or pulled down from the stand surface and injure someone. Do not allow the switched-on device to run unattended.

Air circulation and high temperatures

Ensure that there is at least 3 cm free space on the sides and above the set for air circulation, if the set is placed in a cabinet or on a shelf.

Like any electronic device, your unit requires air for cooling. Obstruction of the air circulation can cause fires.

Prevent metal items, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax, or similar items, from getting into the interior of the device through the openings of the device covers. Such objects can cause short circuits in the unit, which could possibly cause a fire.

If something should get into the interior of the set then immediately unplug the mains plug of the device and contact the field service for more information.

Set-up

Place the unit on an even, firm, horizontal surface. Particularly make sure that the set does not protrude to the front and laterally when placed in or on pieces of furniture.

Set up the device where it is not exposed to direct sunlight and where it is not exposed to additional heating by radiators.

Volume

Loud music can lead to ear damage. Avoid extreme volume especially over long periods. Make sure that the volume is turned down on the TV set or the TV set is turned off before you leave the room.

Thunder storms

In the event of a thunderstorm, pull out the mains plug and all connected cables from the device. A voltage surge caused by lightning conducted through the mains could damage the unit. The mains plug and all connected cables should also be pulled out during long periods of absence.

Repairs and accessories

Under no circumstances, do not open or remove the housing cover, otherwise you will come into contact with dangerous voltages or be exposed to other hazards. There are no parts inside the unit that can be repaired by the user. Have your device repaired or serviced by authorised technicians only.
Only use original accessories, if possible.

Cleaning and care

Switch off the device with the main switch prior to cleaning.

Clean the aluminium surface with a soft, slightly damp, clean and colour-neutral cloth only, without any aggressive or scouring cleaning agents.
