Precautions

 

Play the unit on the power source specified in 

“Specifications.”

 

To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), 

pull it out by the plug, not the cord.

Since a strong magnet is used for the speaker, 

keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding 

or spring-wound watches away from the unit to 

prevent possible damage from the magnet.

 

Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat 

source such as a radiator or airduct, or in a 

place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, 

mechanical vibration, or shock.

 

Allow adequate air circulation to prevent 

internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on 

a surface (a rug, a blanket, etc.) or near 

materials (a curtain) which might block the 

ventilation holes.

 

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, 

unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified 

personnel before operating it any further.

 

To clean the casing, use a soft cloth dampened 

with a mild detergent solution.
