ered it.

2. Connections:

Whenever changing, con-

necting or disconnecting signal or power
cables etc., always turn off all equipment.
This prevents transients from entering the
equipment and prevents electrical energy
from reaching you. Keep all connections

the unit, be certain to disconnect any
interconnection cords with other compo-
nents, and make certain that you discon-
nect any powered units from the AC outlet.

top of the unit or place objects directly
over them. Remember, power amplifiers
generate heat, and the heatsink fins and
ventilation slots that form part of the cabi-
net are specially designed to remove this
heat. Placing other electronic equipment
