Cleaning 
Prior to any cleaning, unplug the electrical power to the VF-500.  Dust can be readily removed 
by wiping or by blowing with compressed dry air.  Wiping the unit with a damp cloth is 
acceptable, but care must be taken not to leave any residual liquid at the electrical connections or 
let any liquid enter the electrical enclosure. 
 

  

CAUTION:  In order to avoid electrical shock, do not spill or immerse the VF-500 

amplifier in liquids.

brokerage, freight, shipping, forwarding and handling charges, duties, customs and taxes 
applicable to warranty-repaired product shipments, if any, will be paid directly by the customer.  
DSM agrees to promptly reimburse customer for its actual freight cost incurred, 

excluding

 

brokerage and handling charges, duties, customs and taxes, for warranty shipment from DSM to 
customer, using the same class of freight service selected to initially return the warranty claim
