<
Place the unit in a stable location near the audio system that you
will use.
<
Be careful to avoid injury when moving the unit due to its weight.
Get someone to help you if necessary.
<
To protect easily scratched furniture, you may stick the feltpads
supplied with the unit to the feet.
<
As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave
sufficient space around the unit for ventilation. Make sure there is
at least 20 cm (8”) of space above and at least 5 cm (2”) of space
on each side of the unit. Do NOT place anything such as a CD,
CD-R, LP, cassette tape etc. on top of the unit.
<
The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as
printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this
matter, consult an electrician.
<
Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid
locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or
moisture.
<
Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the
circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into the
unit, contact your dealer or service company.
<
When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull
directly on the plug, never yank on the cord.
<
Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
Maintenance
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or use
diluted neutral cleaning liquid. Be sure to remove any fluid
completely. Do not use thinner, benzine (naphtha) or alcohol as
they may damage the surface of the unit. For the sake of safety,
disconnect the power plug before cleaning.
Placement of the unit
High-quality hardened tool steel is used for the pin-point feet,
securely attached to the bottom of the unit. Although the outer feet
may appear loose, the weight of the unit causes them to become
firm and secure. The design effectively damps and reduces vibration.
<
As mentioned above, to protect the supporting furniture surface, you
may stick the felt pads supplied with the unit to the bottom of the
metal feet.
