PLACE OF INSTALLATION! Do not expose the instrument to excessive
dust, vibrations, or extreme heat or cold. Avoid placing the instrument near
TV sets, mobile phones, or other electrical devices, as this can lead to noise,
interference or cross-modulation. Place the instrument on a solid and secure
base to prevent accidental tipping or falling. Your instrument should be placed
a minimum distance of 5 cm away from the wall in order to provide adequate
air circulation. Disconnect all connected cables before moving the instrument.
HANDLING WARNING! Please be careful not to jam your fingers in the
movable keyboard cover. Please do not insert objects into any of the openings
in the instrument. In the event that an object does become lodged in the
instrument, immediately unplug the power cord and contact the Blüthner
Customer Service Team. The instrument may only be repaired by authorized
personnel.
