your Sonamp DSP 8-130 MKII, to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons:
1.
Read and retain instructions:
Read all the safety and
operating instructions before operating the amplifier, and
retain them for future reference.

5.
Carts and stands:
The amplifier should
be used only with a cart or stand that is
recommended by the manufacturer. An
amplifier and cart combination should be
moved with care.
6.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT USE
THE POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD,
RECEPTACLE, OR OTHER OUTLETS UNLESS THE BLADES
CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.
7.
Ventilation:
Situate the amplifier so that its location does not
interfere with its proper ventilation.
8.
Heat:
Situate the amplifier away from heat sources such as
radiators, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
9.
Grounding or polarization:
Grounding or polarization are
precautions that should be taken so that these attributes are
not defeated.
10.
Power-cord protection:
Route power supply cords so that
they will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against them.
11.
Cleaning:
To clean the amplifier, use “canned air” or wipe the
amplifier with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents, as they may
damage the amplifier.
12.
Non-use periods:
Unplug the amplifier’s power cord from the
outlet when the amplifier will be left unused for a long period
of time.
13.
Object entry:
Care should be taken so that objects do not fall
through the opening of the enclosure.
14.
Moisture:
Do not expose the amplifier to dripping or splashing.
Do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on
the amplifier.
15.
Damage requiring service:
Have the amplifier serviced by a
qualified service personnel when:
• The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
• Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into
the amplifier.
• The amplifier has been exposed to rain.
• The amplifier does not appear to operate normally or exhibits
a marked change in performance.
• The amplifier has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
16.
