IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please read these important safety instructions before operating this equipment.  

1.

 

Before powering up the equipment, read all safety and operating instructions and follow them as instructed. Retain the 
safety and operating instructions for future reference. 

2.

 

Do not place the unit on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit may fall, causing injury to a person 
or damage to the unit. Mount the unit according to the manufacturer’s instructions with the suggested mounting 
accessory. 

3.

 

Mount the unit to a wall or ceiling only in the manner recommended by the manufacturer. 

4.

 

Do not use the unit near water (for example, near a swimming pool, bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub) 
or in a damp environment (like a basement or outside in the rain). 

5.

 

Clean only with a dry cloth. 

6.

 

Do not push objects of any kind into the unit through openings as they could touch dangerous voltage points and short-
out parts, possibly resulting in a fire or electric shock. Avoid spilling liquid of any kind on the unit. If water or any metal 
object (such as a paper clip, coin, or staple) accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source 
immediately and contact Cary Audio Design for further instructions. 

7.

 

Position the unit away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other units (including amplifiers) 
that produce heat. 

8.

 

This unit is not intended to be used on soft supported items (like blankets, pillows, etc.). 

9.

 

This unit is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present. 

10.

 

Slots and openings in the cabinet create ventilation to protect the component from overheating. These openings on the 
top and bottom panels must remain unobstructed. Allow at least 6 inches (16cm) of clearance above the unit and an 
opening behind the unit for airflow. Do not place the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, built- in bookcase, or rack 
without adequate ventilation. 

11.

 

Use only those attachments recommended by the unit manufacturer, as others may cause hazards. 

12.

 

This unit requires a reliable connection to the socket/outlet with protective earthing by means of the 
specified power cord set. 

13.

 

As a safety feature, the unit may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug in which one blade is wider 
than the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you cannot insert the plug fully into the outlet, 
try reversing the plug. If the plug still will not fit, contact a licensed electrician to update your obsolete outlet. Do not 
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. 

14.

 

Operate the unit only from the power source indicated on the marking label. If you are unsure of the type of power 
supplied to your home, consult your unit dealer or local power company. 

15.

 

Arrange power supply cords so that they do not suffer from foot traffic or pinching by items placed on or against them. 
Pay close attention to cords where plug enter the AC outlet and where they exit from the unit. 

16.

 

For added protection during a lightning storm or when the component is idle for long periods of time, unplug the unit 
from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will help protect the unit from lightning and 
power line surge damage. 

17.

 

Do not locate an outside antenna system in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits. 
When installing an outside antenna system, take extreme care to avoid touching the power lines or circuits; contact with 
them could be fatal. 

18.

 

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this increases the risk of fire or 
electric shock. 

19.

 

External wiring connected to terminals of this unit shall be installed by a skilled person. 

20.

 

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the 
manufacturer or those having the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in 
fire, electric shock or other hazards. 

21.

 

Upon completion of any service or repairs to the unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to 
ensure the unit is in proper operating condition.
