Select a place which is level, dry, and neither too hot nor too cold; between
5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).
•
Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
•
Do not use the System in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, or vibration.
•
Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal
heat buildup.
Power cord
•
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
•
A small amount of power is always consumed while the power cord is
connected to the wall outlet.
•
Do not pull on the cord to unplug the power cord. When unplugging the
power cord, always grasp and pull the plug so as not to damage the cord.
To prevent malfunctions of the System
•
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug
the power cord and consult your dealer.
•
Do not insert any metallic objects or liquids into the System.
Safety precautions
Avoid moisture, water, and dust
Do not place the System in moist or dusty places.
Avoid high temperatures
Do not expose the System to direct sunlight and do not place it near any
heating devices.
When you are away
When away on holiday or for other reasons for an extended period of time,
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
Do not block the vents
Blocking the vents may damage the System.
Care of the cabinet
•
Stains on the System should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water diluted neutral
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.
•
Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its
paint peeled off, be careful about the following:

disinfectants.
–
DO NOT apply any volatile substances such as insecticides to it.
–
DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact with it for a long time.
•
Do not place anything on top of the System. Doing so may cause the System
to fall, causing malfunctioning and/or injury.
•
The manufacturer accepts absolutely no liability for any accidents or damage
resulting from inadequate assembly or mounting, insufficient strength of
attachment, misuse or abuse, or natural disasters.
If water gets inside the System
Turn the System off and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet,
then call the store where you purchased this System. Using the System in this
