Important safety instructions

This product is designed and manufactured to meet
strict quality and safety standards. However, you should
be aware of the following installation and operation
precautions.
1. Take heed of warnings and instructions
You should read all the safety and operating instructions
before operating this equipment. Retain this handbook
for future reference and adhere to all warnings in the
handbook or on the equipment.
2. Water and moisture
The presence of electricity near water can be dangerous.
Do not use the equipment near water – for example
next to a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool, etc.
3. Object or liquid entry
Take care that objects do not fall and liquids are not
spilled into the enclosure through any openings. Liquid-
filled objects such as vases should not be placed on the
equipment.
4. Placing the equipment
Only use a rack or shelf that is stable and strong enough
to support the weight of this equipment.
5. Ventilation
Do not place the equipment on a bed, sofa, rug or similar
soft surface, or in an enclosed bookcase or cabinet, since
ventilation may be impeded. We recommend a minimum
distance of 50mm around the sides and top of the
equipment to provide adequate ventilation.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No user serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated 'dangerous voltage' within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock
to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
CAUTION: In Canada and the USA, to prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot
in the socket and insert the plug fully into the socket.
5. Heat
Locate the equipment away from naked flames or heat-
producing appliances such as radiators, stoves or other
appliances that produce heat.
6. Climate
The equipment has been designed for use in moderate
climates and in domestic situations.
8. Cleaning
Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning.
The case should normally only require a wipe with a soft,
lint-free cloth. Do not use chemical solvents for cleaning.
We do not advise the use of furniture cleaning sprays or
polishes as they can cause indelible white marks.
9. Power sources
Only connect the equipment to a power supply of the
type described in the operating instructions or as marked
on the equipment.
The primary method of isolating Solo Mini from the
mains supply is to use the switch on the rear of the
unit. Solo Mini must be installed in a manner that makes
disconnection possible.
10. Power-cord protection
Power supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them. Pay particular attention to the
point where they exit from the equipment.
11. Power lines
Locate any outdoor antenna/aerial away from power
lines.
