PRECAUTIONS

Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely before operating the unit. Be
sure to keep the Operating Instructions for future reference. All warnings and cautions
in the Operating Instructions and on the unit should be strictly followed, as well as the
safety suggestions below.

INSTALLATION
1 Water and Moisture

- Do not use this unit near water, such as near a bathtub,

washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.

2 Heat

- Do not use this unit near sources of heat, including heating vents,

stoves, or other appliances that generate heat. It also should not be placed in
temperatures less than 5°C (41°F) or greater than 35°C (95°F).

3 Mounting surface

- Place the unit on a flat, even surface.

4 Ventilation

- The unit should be situated with adequate space around it so that

proper ventilation is assured. Allow 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and
the top of the unit, and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side. Do not place on a bed, rug,
or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings. Do not install the unit
in a bookcase cabinet, or airtight rack where ventilation may be impeded.

5 Objects and liquid entry

- Take care that objects or liquids do not get inside the

unit through the ventilation openings.

Carts and stands

- When placed or mounted on a stand or cart, the

unit should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the unit and cart to overturn or fall.

7 Wall or ceiling mounting

- The unit should not be mounted on a wall or ceiling,

unless specified in the Operating Instructions.

WARNING!

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRONIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE

This product is manufactured to comply with the radio interference
requirements of EEC DIRECTIVE 89/68/EEC and 73/23/EEC

ELECTRIC POWER
1 Power Sources

- Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the

Operating Instructions, and as marked on the unit.

2 Polarization

- As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC

power plugs which can only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is
difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug
over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call a
qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. Avoid defeating the
safety feature of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.

3 AC power cord

- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC

power plug. Do not pull the cord itself. Never handle the AC power plug with wet
hands, as this could result in fire or shock. Power cords should be routed to avoid
being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to the cord
from the unit to the power socket. Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension
cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.

4 Extension cord

- To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power

plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug
can be completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.

5 When not in use

- The primary method of isolating the turntable from the mains

supply is to disconnect the mains plug. Ensure that the mains plug remains
accessible at all times. Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit
will not be used for several months or more.
