IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
• To prevent malfunction and equipment failure,
always make sure to turn off the power on
all your equipment before you make any
connections.
Placement
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or
other equipment containing large power
transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate
the problem, change the orientation of this
unit; or move it farther away from the source of
interference.
• Noise may be produced if wireless
communications devices, such as cell phones,
are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such
noise could occur when receiving or initiating
a call, or while conversing. Should you
experience such problems, you should relocate
such wireless devices so they are at a greater
distance from this unit, or switch them off.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place
it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside
an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it
to temperature extremes. Also, do not allow
lighting devices that normally are used while
their light source is very close to the unit (such
as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine
upon the same area of the unit for extended
periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or
discolor the unit.
• When moved from one location to another
where the temperature and/or humidity is very
different, water droplets (condensation) may
form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction
may result if you attempt to use the unit in this
condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you
must allow it to stand for several hours, until
the condensation has completely evaporated.
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials
to remain on this unit for long periods of
time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise
harmfully affect the finish.
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to
this instrument. Peeling such matter off the
instrument may damage the exterior finish.
• Do not put anything that contains water on
this unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides,
perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc.,
near the unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that
spills on the unit using a dry, soft cloth.
Maintenance
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or
solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of
discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using
the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and
when using its jack. Rough handling can lead to
malfunctions.
• When disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This
way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage
to the cable’s internal elements.
• To avoid disturbing others nearby, try to keep
the unit’s volume at reasonable levels.
• When you need to transport the unit, package
it in the box (including padding) that it came
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
