EXPLANATIONS OF GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS

The  Lightning  Flash  with  arrowhead  symbol  within  an 
equilateral  triangle  is  intended  to  alert  the  user  to  the 
presence  of  uninsulated  “dangerous  voltage”  within  the 
product enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to 
constitute a risk of shock to persons.

The  Exclamation  Point  within  an  equilateral  triangle  is 
intended  to  alert  the  user  to  the  presence  of  important 
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the 
literature accompanying the product.

2.1  Location

Install the amplifier in a well-ventilated location where it 
will not be exposed to high temperature or humidity.

Do not install the amplifier in a location that is exposed to direct 
sun rays, or near hot appliances or radiators. Excessive heat can 
adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation 
of  the  amplifier  in  a  damp  or  dusty  environment  may  result  in 
malfunction or accident.

Placing and using the amplifier for long periods of time on 
heat generating sources will affect its performance. Avoid 

placing  the  amplifier  on  heat  generating  sources.  Install  this  am-
plifier  as  far  as  possible  from  tuners  and  TV  sets.  An  amplifier 
installed  in  close  proximity  of  such  equipment  may  experience 
noise or generic performance degradation.

No naked flame sources such as lighted candles should be 
placed on the amplifier.

Do not spill water or other liquids into or on the amplifier.

WARNING
To prevent fire or electric shock:

 

u

The ventilation openings must not be impeded by any item 
such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains etc; keep a distance 
of at least 50 cm from the front and rear ventilation openings 
of the amplifier.

 

u

Do not expose this amplifier to rain or moisture.

 

u

This equipment must not be exposed to dripping or splashing 
liquids: objects filled with liquids, such as vases, must not be 
placed on the amplifier.
