This device has left our premises in absolutely perfect condition. In order to maintain this condition and to
ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely necessary for the user to follow the safety instructions and warning
notes written in this user manual.
Important:
Damages caused by the disregard of this user manual are not subject to warranty. The dealer will
not accept liability for any resulting defects or problems.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it
on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off
until it has reached room temperature.
Please make sure that there are no obvious transport damages. Should you notice any damages on the A/C
connection cable or on the casing, do not take the device into operation and immediately consult your local
dealer.
This device falls under protection-class II and features a protective insulation. The power plug must only be
plugged into a suitable outlet. The voltage and frequency must exactly be the same as stated on the device.
Wrong voltages or power outlets can lead to the destruction of the device and to mortal electrical shock.
Always plug in the power plug least. The power plug must always be inserted without force. Make sure that
the plug is tightly connected with the outlet. Never let the power cord come into contact with other cables!
Handle the power cord and all connections with the mains with particular caution! Never touch them with wet
hands, as this could lead to mortal electrical shock.
Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure on, pull or heat up the power cord. Never operate next
to sources of heat or cold. Disregard can lead to power cord damages, fire or mortal electrical shock. The
cable insert or the female part in the device must never be strained. There must always be sufficient cable to
the device. Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which may lead to mortal damage. Make sure that the
power cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the device and the power cord from time to
time. If extension cords are used, make sure that the core diameter is sufficient for the required power
consumption of the device. All warnings concerning the power cords are also valid for possible extension
cords.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the power
cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power cord. Otherwise, the cable or plug can be
damaged leading to mortal electrical shock. If the power plug or the power switch is not accessible, the
device must be disconnected via the mains. If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must be
taken out of operation, disconnected and then be cleaned with a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation
which may lead to mortal electrical shock. More severe dirt in and at the device should only be removed by a
specialist.
There must never enter any liquid into power outlets, extension cords or any holes in the housing of the
device. If you suppose that also a minimal amount of liquid may have entered the device, it must immediately
be disconnected. This is also valid, if the device was exposed to high humidity. Also if the device is still
running, the device must be checked by a specialist if the liquid has reduced any insulation. Reduced
insulation can cause mortal electrical shock.
There must never be any objects entering into the device. This is especially valid for metal parts. If any metal
parts like staples or coarse metal chips enter into the device, the device must be taken out of operation and
disconnected immediately. Malfunction or short-circuits caused by metal parts may cause mortal injuries.
CAUTION:
Turn the amplifier on last and off first! Keep away children and amateurs!
CAUTION:
High volumes can cause hearing damage!
Please note that damages caused by manual modifications on the device or unauthorized operation by
unqualified persons are not subject to warranty. There are no serviceable parts inside the device.
Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized dealers.
