before operating this appliance. Retain this handbook 

for future reference and adhere to all warnings in the 

handbook or on the appliance.

2. Water and moisture

The presence of electricity near water can be dangerous. 

Do not use the appliance near water – for example next to 

a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet basement or 

near a swimming pool, etc.

3. object or liquid entry

Take care that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled 

into the enclosure through any openings. Liquid-filled objects 

such as vases should not be placed on the equipment.

4. Ventilation

Do not place the equipment on a bed, sofa, rug or similar 

soft surface, or in an enclosed bookcase or cabinet, since 

ventilation may be impeded. We recommend a minimum 

distance of 50mm around the sides and top of the 

appliance to provide adequate ventilation.

producing equipment such as radiators, stoves or other 

appliances (including other amplifiers) that produce heat.

climates.

7. Racks and stands

Only use a rack or stand that is recommended for use with 

audio equipment. If the equipment is on a portable rack it 

should be moved with great care, to avoid overturning the 

combination.

8. Cleaning

Unplug the unit from the mains supply before cleaning.
The case should normally only require a wipe with a soft, 

damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use paint thinners or other 

chemical solvents for cleaning.
We do not advise the use of furniture cleaning sprays or 

polishes as they can cause indelible white marks if the unit 

is subsequently wiped with a damp cloth.

outlet using the supplied power cord. To disconnect 

this apparatus from power, you must disconnect the 

power cord. Make sure the power cord is always easily

described in the operating instructions or as marked on 

the appliance.

 be earthed.

The power switch is a single-pole switch. When the switch 

is in the “Off” position, the appliance is not completely 

disconnected from the main power.

10. Power-cord protection

Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not 

likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon 

or against them, paying particular attention to cords and 

plugs, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

11. Grounding

Ensure that the grounding means of the appliance is not 

defeated.

12. Power lines

Locate any outdoor antenna/aerial away from power lines.

13. non-use periods

If the unit has a stand-by function, a small amount of 

current will continue to flow into the equipment in this 

mode. Unplug the power cord of the appliance from the 

outlet if left unused for a long period of time.

14. Abnormal smell

If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from the 

appliance, turn the power off immediately and unplug the 

unit from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer immediately.

that described in this handbook. All other servicing should

appliance, or
