Common sense

Some of these things go without saying, but we're
going to say them anyway!
• Read all operating instructions before
using this equipment.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
do not open the unit. There are NO USER
REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. For all repairs
or service questions please contact the Gemini
Service Department or your authorized dealer to
speak to a qualified Gemini Sound Products
technician.
• Be sure to allow adequate front and
rear ventilation to avoid possible heat damage to
your equipment.
• Be sure that AC power is OFF and all
level controls are set to MINIMUM before making
connections. This will eliminate any chance of
unexpected loud buzzes, pops or clicks that could
damage your speakers.
• DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN
OR MOISTURE.
• Operators of electronic equipment should
never be in contact with water
• Keep your power amplifier grounded for
maximum safety by always using a 3-prong plug.
If you are using an extension cord, always use a
3-prong cord as well.

LUBRICANT ON ANY CONTROLS OR
