Ventilation

IMPORTANT

– The unit will become hot when in use. Do not stack multiple

units on top of each other. Do not place in an enclosed area such as a
bookcase or in a cabinet without sufficient ventilation. 

Ensure that small objects do not fall through any ventilation grille. If this
happens, switch off immediately, disconnect from the mains supply and
contact your dealer for advice.

Positioning

Choose the installation location carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or
close to a source of heat. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the unit. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and
excessive dust, cold or moisture. The unit can be used in a moderate climate. 

This unit must be installed on a sturdy, level surface. Do not place in a sealed
area such as a bookcase or in a cabinet. Do not place the unit on an unstable
surface or shelf. The unit may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as
well as serious damage to the product. Do not place other equipment on top
of the unit.

Due to stray magnetic fields, turntables or CRT TVs should not be located
nearby due to possible interference.

Electronic audio components have a running in period of around a week (if
used several hours per day). This will allow the new components to settle down
and the sonic properties will improve over this time.

Power sources 

The unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on
the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power-supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power company. 

This unit can be left in Standby mode when not in use and will draw <1W in
this state. To turn the unit off, switch off at the rear panel. If you do not intend
to use this unit for a long period of time, unplug it from the mains socket.

Overloading 

Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power
cords, damaged or cracked wire insulation and broken plugs are dangerous.
They may result in a shock or fire hazard. 

Be sure to insert each power cord securely. To prevent hum and noise, do not
bundle the interconnect leads with the power cord or speaker leads.

Cleaning

To clean the unit, wipe its case with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any
cleaning fluids containing alcohol, ammonia or abrasives. Do not spray an
aerosol at or near the unit.

Battery disposal

Batteries may contain substances harmful to the environment. Please dispose
of any discharged batteries with due consideration and in accordance with
local environmental/electronic recycling guidelines.

Servicing 

These units are not user serviceable. Never attempt to repair, disassemble or
reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock
could result if this precautionary measure is ignored. In the event of a problem
or failure, please contact your dealer.
