Safety precautions

Placement

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.

Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion and 
unwanted acoustical effects.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

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.

AC mains lead protection

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.

Foreign matter

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.

Service

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 centre. 
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.
