12.  Use with only the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified 

by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a 

cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/ apparatus 

combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13.  Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long 

periods of time.

14.  Refer  all  servicing  to  qualified  service  personnel.  Servicing  is  required

the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. Only use the mains cord 

supplied with this unit.

Do not put any objects on top of this unit. Do not situate it on a rug or other 

soft surface and do not obstruct any air inlets or outlet grilles. Do not cover the 

ventilation grilles with items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

water or other liquids. No objects filled with liquid, such as vases, shall be 

placed on the unit.

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.
