Preparation
≥
Connect this unit to your TV with a fully wired 21-pin Scart lead (
➡
12–14).
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 place 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 authorized 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.
