Reference

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct 

sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive 

vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and 

other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service 

life.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can 

overload the unit and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source 

carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other 

places where DC is used.

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not 

damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause 

fire or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy 

items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling 

the AC mains lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause 

electric shock.

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can 

cause electric shock or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric 

shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately 

disconnect the unit from the power supply and contact 

your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They 

contain flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into 

the unit.

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is 

interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any 

other problem that is not covered in these instructions 

occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your 

dealer or an authorised service center. Electric shock or 

damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, 

disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the 

power source if it is not to be used for a long time.
