IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
the AVr 158 has been designed for use with 220 – 240-volt alternating current (Ac).
connection to a line voltage other than that for which your AVr is intended can create
a safety and fire hazard, and may damage the unit. If you have any questions about
the voltage requirements for your specific model or about the line voltage in your area,
contact your selling dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
to avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord supplied with your unit. we do not
recommend that extension cords be used with this product. As with all electrical devices,
do not run power cords under rugs or carpets, or place heavy objects on them. damaged
power cords should be replaced immediately by an authorised service centre with a cord
meeting factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
when disconnecting the power cord from an Ac outlet, always pull the plug; never
pull the cord. If you do not intend to use your AVr for any considerable length of time,
disconnect the plug from the Ac outlet.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
there are no user-serviceable components inside this product. opening the cabinet may
present a shock hazard, and any modification to the product will void your warranty. If
water or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire or staple accidentally falls inside
the unit, disconnect it from the Ac power source immediately, and consult an authorised
service centre.
Place the AVR

•
hardware can support the AVr’s weight.
provide proper space above and below the AVr for ventilation. If you install the AVr in
•
a cabinet or other enclosed area, provide cooling air within the cabinet. under some
circumstances, a fan may be required.
do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of the AVr or place objects directly
•
over them.
do not place the AVr directly on a carpeted surface.
•
do not place the AVr in moist or humid locations, in extremely hot or cold locations, in
•
