IMPORTANT NOTES

 

291a

 

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 18–20, 
please read and observe the following:

Power Supply: Use of Batteries

301

• Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any device that will generate line 

noise (such as an electric motor or variable lighting system).

302

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is 

normal, and is not a cause for concern.

303a

• The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s power consumption is 

relatively high. Should you prefer to use batteries, please use the alkaline type.

304b

• Batteries should always be installed or replaced before connecting any other devices. 

This way, you can prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

306b

• Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these batteries may be limited, however, 

since their primary purpose was to enable testing.

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will 

help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

351

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power trans-

formers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; 
or move it farther away from the source of interference.

352

• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in 

the vicinity of such receivers.

355

• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in a wet area, such as an area exposed 

to rain or other moisture.
