IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
• Do not connect this unit to same
electrical outlet that is being used
by an electrical appliance that is
controlled by an inverter or a motor
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner).
Depending on the way in which the
electrical appliance is used, power
supply noise may cause this unit to
malfunction or may produce audible
noise. If it is not practical to use a
separate electrical outlet, connect a
power supply noise filter between this
unit and the electrical outlet.
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate
heat after long hours of consecutive
use. This is normal, and is not a cause
for concern.
• The use of an AC adaptor is
recommended as the unit’s power
consumption is relatively high. Should
you prefer to use batteries, please use
the alkaline , rechargeable Ni-MH type.
• To prevent malfunction and equipment
failure, always make sure to turn off the
power on all your equipment before you
make any connections.
• When installing or replacing batteries,
always turn this unit off and disconnect
any other devices you may have
connected. This way, you can prevent
malfunction and damage.
• If the batteries run extremely low, the
sound may distort or interruptions in the
sound may occur at high volume levels,
but this does not indicate a malfunction.
If this occurs, please replace the batteries
or use the included AC adaptor.
• If operating this unit on batteries, please
use alkaline batteries, rechargeable
Ni-MH batteries.
• If operating this unit on batteries, please
disconnect the AC adaptor from this unit.
Placement
• Using the unit near power amplifiers
(or other equipment containing large
power transformers) may induce hum.
To alleviate the problem, change the
orientation of this unit; or move it farther
away from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and
television reception. Do not use this
device in the vicinity of such receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless
communications devices, such as cell
phones, are operated in the vicinity of
this unit. Such noise could occur when
receiving or initiating a call, or while
conversing. Should you experience
such problems, you should relocate
such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch
them off.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight,
place it near devices that radiate heat,
leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or
otherwise subject it to temperature
extremes. Also, do not allow lighting
devices that normally are used while
their light source is very close to the
unit (such as a piano light), or powerful
spotlights to shine upon the same area
of the unit for extended periods of time.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor
the unit.
• When moved from one location to
another where the temperature and/or
humidity is very different, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit.
Damage or malfunction may result if you
attempt to use the unit in this condition.
Therefore, before using the unit, you
must allow it to stand for several hours,
until the condensation has completely
evaporated.
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar
materials to remain on this unit for
long periods of time. Such objects can
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect
the finish.
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like
to this instrument. Peeling such matter
off the instrument may damage the
exterior finish.
• Depending on the material and
temperature of the surface on which
you place the unit, its rubber feet may
discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth
under the rubber feet to prevent this
from happening. If you do so, please
make sure that the unit will not slip or
move accidentally.
• Do not place containers or anything
else containing liquid on top of this
unit. Also, whenever any liquid has been
spilled on the surface of this unit, be sure
to promptly wipe it away using a soft,
dry cloth.
Maintenance
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit
with a soft, dry cloth or one that has
been slightly dampened with water.
To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth
impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive
detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe
the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol
or solvents of any kind, to avoid the
possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Additional Precautions
• Use a reasonable amount of care when
using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other
controls; and when using its jacks and
connectors. Rough handling can lead to
malfunctions.
• When disconnecting all cables, grasp
the connector itself—never pull on the
cable. This way you will avoid causing
shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal
elements.
• To avoid disturbing others nearby, try
to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable
levels.
• When you need to transport the
unit, package it in the box (including
padding) that it came in, if possible.
Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
• Some connection cables contain
resistors. Do not use cables that
incorporate resistors for connecting
to this unit. The use of such cables
can cause the sound level to be
extremely low, or impossible to hear.
For information on cable specifications,
contact the manufacturer of the cable.
