Placement precautions

o Do not install this unit in a location that could become hot.

This includes places that are exposed to direct sunlight or near

a radiator, heater, stove or other heating equipment. Moreover,

do not place it on top of an amplifier or other equipment that

generates heat. Doing so could cause discoloration, deformation

or malfunction.

o Avoid locations that are extremely cold or exposed to excessive

humidity or dust.

o When installing this unit, leave a little space (at least 3 cm or 8")

between it and walls and other devices in order to allow good

heat dissipation. If you put it in a rack, for example, leave at least

5 cm (2") open above it and at least 10 cm (4") open behind it.

Failure to provide these gaps could cause heat to build up inside

and result in fire.

o Place the unit in a stable location near the audio system that you

will use with it.

o DO NOT place anything, not even CDs, CD-Rs, LP records or cas-

sette tapes, on top of the units. Doing so could cause damage.

o The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage

printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this

matter, consult an electrician.

o Do not move the unit during use.

o Do not open the body of the unit because this could result in

damage to the circuitry or cause electric shock. If a foreign object

should enter the unit, contact your dealer.

o When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull

directly on the plug; never yank on the cord.
