Ventilation
IMPORTANT – The unit will become hot when in use. Do not stack multiple units
on top of each other. Do not place in an enclosed area such as a bookcase or
in a cabinet without sufficient ventilation. Ensure that small objects do not fall
through any ventilation grille. If this happens, switch off immediately, disconnect
from the mains supply and contact your dealer for advice.
Positioning
Choose the installation location carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or
close to a source of heat. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the unit. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and
excessive dust, cold or moisture. The unit can be used in a moderate climate.
This unit must be installed on a sturdy, level surface. Do not place in a sealed
area such as a bookcase or in a cabinet. Do not place the unit on an unstable
surface or shelf. The unit may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as
well as serious damage to the product. Do not place other equipment on top of
the unit.
Due to stray magnetic fields, turntables or CRT TVs should not be located nearby
due to possible interference.
Electronic audio components have a running in period of around a week (if used
several hours per day). This will allow the new components to settle down and
the sonic properties will improve over this time.
Power sources
The unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power company.
To turn the unit off, unplug it from the mains socket.
WARNING: Do not continue using the external power supply if it is broken.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire
or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords,
damaged or cracked wire insulation and broken plugs are dangerous. They may
result in a shock or fire hazard. Be sure to insert each power cord securely. To
prevent hum and noise, do not bundle the interconnect leads with the power
cord or speaker leads.
