FCC INFORMATION (U.S.A.)

1. IMPORTANT NOTICE: DO NOT MODIFY THIS 

UNIT!

 This product, when installed as indicated in 

the instructions contained in this manual, meets 

FCC requirements. Modifications not expressly 

approved by Vocopro may void your authority, 

granted by the FCC, to use this product.

2. IMPORTANT:

 When connecting this product to 

accessories and/or another product use only high 

quality shielded cables. Cable(s) supplied with this 

product MUST be used. Follow all installation 

instructions. Failure to follow instructions could 

void your FCC authorization to use product in the 

U.S.A.

3. NOTE:

 This product has been tested and found 

to comply with the requirements listed in FCC 

Regulations, Part 15 for Class “B” digital devices. 

Compliance with these requirements provides a 

reasonable level of assurances that your use of 

this product in a residential environment will not 

result in harmful interference with other electronic 

devices. This equipment generates/uses radio 

frequencies and, if not installed and used 

according to the instructions found in the owner’s 

manual, may cause interference harmful to the 

operation of other electronic devices. Compliance 

with FCC regulations does not guarantee that 

interference will not occur in all installations. If this 

product is found to be the source of interference, 

which can be determined by turning the unit “Off” 

and “On”, please try to eliminate the problem by 

using one of the following measures:

Relocate either this product or the device that is 

being affected by the interference. 

Use power outlets that are on different branch 

(circuit breaker or fuse) circuits or install AC line 

filter(s).

In the case of radio or TV interference, 

relocate/reorient the antenna. If the antenna lead-

in is 300-ohm ribbon lead, change the lead-in to 

coaxial type cable.

If these corrective measures do not produce 

satisfactory results, please contact your local 

retailer authorized to distribute Vocopro products. If 

you can not locate the appropriate retailer, please 

contact Vocopro, 1728 Curtiss Court, La Verne, CA 

91750.

CAUTION

The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC 

power source so long as it is connected to the 

wall outlet, even if the apparatus itself is turned 

off. To fully insure that the apparatus is indeed 

fully void if residual power, leave unit 

disconnected from the AC outlet for at least 

fifteen seconds.

CAUTION:

 READ THIS BEFORE 

OPERATING YOUR UNIT

1. To ensure the finest performance, please read this 

manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future 

reference. 

2. Install your unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from 

windows, heat sources, and too much vibration, dust, 

moisture or cold. Avoid sources of hum (transformers, 

motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not 

expose to rain and water.

3. Do not operate the unit upside-down.

4. Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into 

 the set, contact your dealer.

5. Place the unit in a location with adequate air 

circulation. Do not interfere with its proper ventilation; 

this will cause the internal temperature to rise and may 

result in a failure.

6. Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords. When 

moving the unit, first turn the unit off. Then gently 

disconnect the power plug and the cords connecting to 

other equipment. Never pull the cord itself.

7. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical 

solvents: this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry 

cloth.

8. Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on 

common operating errors before concluding that your 

unit is faulty.

9. This unit consumes a fair amount of power even when 

the power switch is turned off. We recommend that you 

unplug the power cord from the wall outlet if the unit is 

not going to be used for a long time. This will save 

electricity and help prevent  fire hazards. To disconnect 

the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the 

cord itself.

10. To prevent lightning damage, pull out the power cord 

and remove the antenna cable during an electrical 

storm. 

11. The general digital signals may interfere with other 

equipment such as tuners or receivers. Move the system 

farther away from such equipment if interference is 

observed.

12. When positining your equipment, especially 

regarding speakers or other accessories, avoid 

positioning them over areas where they can fall and 

cause injury to yourself and others.

NOTE:

Please check the copyright laws in your country 

before recording from records, compact discs, radio, 

etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe 

copyright laws.
