Precautions

On safety

Should any solid object or liquid get into the 
unit, unplug the unit, and have it checked by 
qualified personnel before operating it again.

On power sources

• Before operating the unit, check that the 

operating voltage is identical with your local 
power supply.

• Do not plug the AC power cord (mains lead) 

for the unit into an electrical outlet until you 
have made all other connections. Make sure 
the TV or other equipment is unplugged 
from the electrical outlet prior to connecting 
it to the unit.

• Do not connect the AC power cord (mains 

lead) to a voltage transformer or inverter. 
Connecting the AC power cord (mains lead) 
to a voltage transformer for overseas travel 
or an inverter for use in an automobile may 
cause heat to build up in the AC adaptor and 
may cause burns or a malfunction.

• Do not use an AC adaptor or AC power cord 

(mains lead) other than the supplied AC 
adaptor and AC power cord (mains lead). Do 
not modify the cord.

• Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord 

(mains lead) with wet hands.

• Do not touch the AC power cord (mains 

lead), AC adaptor or the unit, if connected to 
an electrical outlet, during an electrical 
storm.

• Do not place heavy items on the cord.
• Do not place the AC power cord (mains 

lead) near heating equipment and do not 
expose the cord to heat.

• Completely disconnect the AC power cord 

(mains lead) from the wall socket (mains) if 
it is not going to be used for an extended 
period of time. When unplugging the unit, 
always grip the plug. Never pull the cord 
itself.

• (USA and Canada model only)

One blade of the plug is wider than the other 
for the purpose of safety and will fit into the 
wall outlet only one way. If you are unable 
to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact 
your dealer. 

• The AC power cord (mains lead) can be 

changed only by a qualified service facility.

On placement

• Do not place the unit in an inclined position 

or in locations that are extremely hot, cold, 
dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking adequate 
ventilation, or subject to vibration, direct 
sunlight or a bright light.

• Be careful when placing the unit on surfaces 

that have been specially treated (for 
example, with wax, oil, polish) as staining or 
discoloration of the surface may result.

• Since a strong magnet is used for the 

speakers, keep personal credit cards using 
magnetic coding or spring-wound watches 
away from the unit to prevent possible 
damage from the magnet.

On heat buildup

• Heat buildup on the unit during operation is 

normal and is not a cause for alarm.

• Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used 

continuously at a high volume because the 
cabinet may have become hot.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

On cleaning

Clean this unit with a soft cloth slightly 
moistened with a mild detergent solution.  Do 
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring 
powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, 
or alcohol.
