Set-Up And Safety - Grundig Ovation 3 Instruction Manual

SET-UP AND SAFETY

Please note the following instructions when set-
ting up the system:
The hi-fi system is designed for the playback
7
of audio signals. Any other use is expressly
prohibited.
If you want to set up the hi-fi system on wall
7
shelves or in cupboards, please ensure that it
is adequately ventilated. There must be at least
10 cm of space at the side, above and behind
the hi-fi system.
Do not cover the hi-fi system with newspapers,
7
table cloths, curtains, etc.
When setting up the hi-fi system, remember
7
that furniture is often coated with various types
of varnish and plastic, which often contain
chemical additives. These additives may cause
corrosion to the feet of the unit. This may leave
stains on the surface of the furniture which can
be difficult or impossible to remove.
If the hi-fi system is exposed to sudden changes
7
in temperature, for example when taken from
the cold into a warm room, wait at least two
hours before using it.
The hi-fi system is designed for use in dry
7
rooms. If you do use it outdoors, make sure it
is protected from moisture such as dripping or
splashing water.
Only use the hi-fi system in a moderate cli-
7
mate.
Do not place the hi-fi system close to heating
7
units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair
cooling.
Do not place any vessels containing liquids,
7
such as vases, on the hi-fi system. Do not insert
any foreign objects in the CD compartment.
Do not place any objects such as burning can-
7
dles on the hi-fi system.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do not open the hi-fi system casing under any
7
circumstances. Warranty claims are excluded
for damage resulting from improper handling.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical
7
devices. Even if the hi-fi system is switched off,
it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the
mains. Always disconnect the mains plug dur-
ing a storm.
Continuous use at high volume level can cause
7
damage to the user's hearing.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while
7
the device is switched on. Switch off the oth-
er devices as well before connecting them.
Only plug the device into the mains socket
7
after you have connected the external de-
vices. Make sure the power plug is freely
accessible.
