Important Safety Instructions
Read and follow all instructions. Keep these instructions. Observe all warnings
and safety instructions. Operate this device only in a moderate climate (not
in a tropical climate). Do not operate this device at altitudes above 2000 m
above sea level. To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock, the device must not
be exposed to rain or moisture. Do not operate this device near water. Do not
expose this device to dripping or splashing water. Strong temperature fluctuati-
ons lead to condensation (water droplets) in the device. Wait until the moisture
has evaporated (at least three hours). Do not place objects filled with liquids
(such as vases) on the device. Do not place an open fire, such as lit candles, on
or near the device. Do not place the device near heat sources such as radiators,
heat accumulators, stoves or other devices (including amplifiers) that generate
heat. Avoid direct sunlight. Keep a clearance of at least 5 cm around the de-
vice. Never prevent the protective function of polarised or grounded plugs: A
polarised plug has two pins, one wider than the other. An earthed plug has a
third earthing pin. The wide or third pin is for your safety. If the plug does not
fit into your outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.
To avoid electric shock, connect the mains plug only to sockets or extensions
where the contact pins can be fully inserted to prevent exposed contact pins.
Never touch the signal and mains cable with wet hands. Do not step on or
pinch the mains cable, especially not in the area of the plugs, sockets or where
the cable is led out of the device. For devices without a mains switch, in which
the mains plug or the device mains socket serves as an isolating device, the
plug of the mains cable or the device mains socket must be freely accessible
at all times. Disconnect the device from the mains during thunderstorms or
prolonged periods of non-use. To completely disconnect the device from the
power supply, unplug the mains cable from the wall outlet. Where the MAINS
plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, thedisconnect
device shall remain readily operable. Always switch off the device before
connecting or disconnecting connection cables. Always switch off the device
before connecting or disconnecting connection cables. Always pull the plugs
and not the cables. Install the device according to the manufacturer‘s instruc-
tions. Always choose a level surface. The device must be in a vertical position.
Do not exert force on operating elements, connections and lines. The device
may only be operated with the voltage and frequency specified on the device
or the type plate. Do not insert any objects or body parts into the openings of
the device. Live parts inside the housing could be touched and/or damaged.
This can lead to short circuits, electric shocks and fire. Only use fixing materials
and accessories that are approved by the manufacturer and/or supplied with
the device. Only use trolleys, stands, tripods, holders or tables specified by the
manufacturer or sold with the device.
When using a trolley, be careful when moving the trolley/device
assembly to prevent damage and injury from tipping over.
Only clean this device with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use any aggressive,
alcoholic or abrasive agents for cleaning. To avoid electric shock, do not
open the housing! There are no user-serviceable parts in the device. Consult
qualified personnel for all repair and maintenance work. This is required
when the device has been damaged in any way, such as mains cable or plug
damage, liquid or objects have been spilled, exposed to rain or moisture, does
not operate normally, or has been dropped. Do not make any changes to the
device or accessories. Unauthorised modifications can compromise safety,
regulatory compliance or system performance. In this case, the type approval/
guarantee may expire.
If sound distortions such as unnatural knocking, throbbing or high-frequency
clicking occur during playback, the volume level must be reduced immediately.
To avoid possible hearing damage, do not listen at high levels for
long periods of time. Interrupt the playback if you hear ringing or
whistling noises in your ears or if you have the impression that
you can no longer hear high sounds (even for a short time).
New and used batteries must be kept away from children. Devices in which the
battery compartment cannot be closed securely must not be used any longer
and must be kept away from children. The remote control supplied with this
device contains a button cell as battery. Swallowing the button cell can cause
serious internal burns and thus death in only 2 hours! Do not ingest the batte-
ry, Chemical Burn Hazard. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or
placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention. Take care
of your environment when disposing of the battery. Batteries must be disposed
of at a battery collection point. Do not expose batteries to high temperatures,
such as direct sunlight, fire or the like.
Batteries must be inserted correctly according to the polarity imprint. Incorrect
insertion can lead to damage. Only use the batteries or rechargeable batteries
specified for the device. The batteries supplied are not rechargeable batteries,
i.e. these batteries must not be recharged. The device contains permanent
magnets.
The device and/or the accessory may contain small parts that
can be swallowed. Therefore not suitable for children under
three years.
This symbol indicates uninsulated dangerous voltages inside the
case that are sufficiently strong (amplitude) to cause a fire or
electric shock.
This symbol warns you of important operating and maintenance
instructions in the accompanying documentation (manual)
supplied.
This symbol indicates Class II devices, where protection against
electric shock is provided by double or reinforced insulation
during specified use and therefore no protective earth connection
is required.
