2. RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS – For future reference.
3. COMPLY WITH ALL WARNINGS – Non-compliance may void warranty of the product.

damage speakers if amplifiers are already turned on. Make sure that amplifier volumes are set to their minimum settings and power up any
system amplifiers LAST. It is recommended that all system components be allowed to stabilize for few seconds before any source signals are
introduced or level setting adjustments are made. Similarly, when shutting systems down, turn all amplifiers off first, before powering down
any other system components.

with proper connectors.
