IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all instructions.Keep these instructions. Observe all
warnings and safety instructions. Operate this device only in a moderate
climate (not in a tropical climate). Do not operate this device at altitudes
above 2000 m above sea level. To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock,
the device must not be exposed to rain or moisture. Do not operate this
device near water. Do not expose this device to dripping or splashing wa-
ter. Strong temperature fluctuations lead to condensation (water droplets)
in the device. Wait until the moisture has evaporated (at least three hours).
Do not place objects filled with liquids (such as vases) on the device. Do
not place an open fire, such as lit candles, on or near the device. Do not
place the device near heat sources such as radiators, heat accumulators,
stoves or other devices (including amplifiers) that generate heat. Avoid
direct sunlight. Keep a clearance of at least 5 cm around the device. Never
prevent the protective function of polarised or grounded plugs: A polarised
plug has two pins, one wider than the other. An earthed plug has a third
earthing pin. The wide or third pin is for your safety. If the plug does not
fit into your outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet.To avoid electric shock, connect the mains plug only to sockets or
extensions where the contact pins can be fully inserted to prevent exposed
contact pins.
Never touch the signal and mains cable with wet hands. Do not step on
or pinch the mains cable, especially not in the area of the plugs, sockets
or where the cable is led out of the device. For devices without a mains
switch, in which the mains plug or the device mains socket serves as an
isolating device, the plug of the mains cable or the device mains socket
must be freely accessible at all times. Disconnect the device from the mains
during thunderstorms or prolonged periods of non-use. To completely
disconnect the device from the power supply, unplug the mains cable
from the wall outlet. Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is
used as the disconnect device, thedisconnect device shall remain readily
operable. Always switch off the device before connecting or disconnecting
connection cables. Always switch off the device before connecting or
disconnecting connection cables. Always pull the plugs and not the cables.
Install the device according to the manufacturer‘s instructions. Always
choose a level surface. The device must be in a vertical position. Do not
exert force on operating elements, connections and lines. The device may
only be operated with the voltage and frequency specified on the device
or the type plate. Do not insert any objects or body parts into the openings
of the device. Live parts inside the housing could be touched and/or
damaged. This can lead to short circuits, electric shocks and fire. Only use
fixing materials and accessories that are approved by the manufacturer
and/or supplied with the device. Only use trolleys, stands, tripods, holders
or tables specified by the manufacturer or sold with the device.
When using a trolley, be careful when moving the trolley/device
assembly to prevent damage and injury from tipping over.
Only clean this device with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use any aggressive,
alcoholic or abrasive agents for cleaning. To avoid electric shock, do not
open the housing! There are no user-serviceable parts in the device. Con-
sult qualified personnel for all repair and maintenance work. This is required
when the device has been damaged in any way, such as mains
cable or plug damage, liquid or objects have been spilled, exposed to rain
or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. Do not make
any changes to the device or accessories. Unauthorised modifications can
compromise safety, regulatory compliance or system performance. In this
case, the type approval/guarantee may expire.
If sound distortions such as unnatural knocking, throbbing or high-fre-
quency clicking occur during playback, the volume level must be reduced
immediately.
To avoid possible hearing damage, do not listen at high levels for
long periods of time. Interrupt the playback if you hear ringing or
whistling noises in your ears or if you have the impression that
you can no longer hear high sounds (even for a short time).
New and used batteries must be kept away from children. Devices in which
the battery compartment cannot be closed securely must not be used any
longer and must be kept away from children. The remote control supplied
with this device contains a button cell as battery. Swallowing the button
cell can cause serious internal burns and thus death in only 2 hours! Do not
ingest the battery, Chemical Burn Hazard. If you think batteries might have
been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate
medical attention. Take care of your environment when disposing of the
battery. Batteries must be disposed of at a battery collection point. Do
not expose batteries to high temperatures, such as direct sunlight, fire or
the like.
Batteries must be inserted correctly according to the polarity imprint.
Incorrect insertion can lead to damage. Only use the batteries or rechar-
geable batteries specified for the device. The batteries supplied are not
rechargeable batteries, i.e. these batteries must not be recharged. The
device contains permanent magnets.
Do not place or lay objects that are sensitive to magnetic fields
(e.g. tube TVs, external hard drives, magnetic cards, video
cassettes, etc.) on or directly next to the device.
The device and/or the accessory may contain small parts that
can be swallowed. Therefore not suitable for children under
three years.
This symbol indicates uninsulated dangerous voltages inside the
case that are sufficiently strong (amplitude) to cause a fire or
electric shock.
This symbol warns you of important operating and maintenance
instructions in the accompanying documentation (manual)
supplied.
This symbol indicates Class II devices, where protection against
electric shock is provided by double or reinforced insulation
during specified use and therefore no protective earth connection
is required.
