TRANSPORT AND SHIPMENT

When packing the amplifier for shipping, please follow these instructions to avoid damaging the unit:

1.  Put  the plastic bag around the amplifier.  Make sure the plastic bag does not press tightly on the 
knobs as this may damage them during transport.
2.  Carefully  insert the H160 sideways into the shock absorbers. It is heavy so make certain you take 
care when lifting.
3.  Lift  the H160, holding on to the center of the back and front panels, avoiding the volume knob and 
input selector button, so they do not get damaged.  Ensure the shock absorbers remain firmly fitted 
onto the left and right sides of the amplifier when you put it in the box

CLEANING

Finger prints or stains on the front panel or top cover can be removed with a damp cloth which 
has been slightly moistened with warm water or a mild detergent suitable for cleaning mirrors and 
windows.  At no time should liquid cleaners be sprayed or applied directly on the amplifier, as direct 
application of liquids may result in damage to electronic components within the unit.
