IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Caution:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
remove the back panel and do not expose
the apparatus to rain or moisture. No user-
serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel.
Explanation of Graphical
Symbols:
The lightning flash within an
equilateral triangle is intended
to alert you to the presence of
uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to
constitute an electric shock to
persons.
The exclamation point within
an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert you to the
presence of important
operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the
appliance.
WARNINGS:
1 Read Instructions – All the safety and
operating instructions should be read
before the appliance is operated.
2 Retain Instructions – The safety and
operating instructions should be
retained for future reference.
3 Heed Warnings – All warnings on the
appliance and in the operating
instructions should be adhered to.
4 Follow Instructions – All operating and
use instructions should be followed.
5 Installation – Install in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
6 Power Sources – This product should
be operated only from the type of
power source indicated by the marking
situated on the rear panel. If you are
not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your product
dealer or local power company.
7 Grounding or Polarisation – The
appliance is not required to be
grounded. Ensure the plug is fully
inserted into the wall outlet or
extension cord receptacle to prevent
blade or pin exposure. Some versions
of the product are equipped with a
power cord fitted with a polarised
alternating line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug
will fit onto the power outlet only one
way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarised plug. When
using an extension power-supply cord
or a power-supply cord other than that
supplied with the appliance, it should
be fitted with the appropriate moulded-
on plugs and carry safety approval
appropriate to the country of use.
8 Power Cord Protection – Power-supply
cords should be routed so that they
are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed on or against
them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles and the point where they
exit from the appliance.
9 Overloading – Do not overload wall
outlets, extension cords or integral
convenience receptacles, as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
10 Ventilation – The amplifier panel at the
rear of the product forms part of the
cooling mechanism and must not be
obscured by placing the product on a
bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
Do not cover the amplifier panel with
any items such as tablecloths,
newspapers, etc. Ensure the heat sink
fins are aligned vertically to ensure
proper cooling. There should be a clear
gap of at least 50mm (2-in) between
the back of the product and any wall
or partition. If the product is placed in
a built-in installation, such as a rack,
bookcase or cabinet, proper provision
for air to circulate must be provided,
either by a) 12mm (1/2-in) clear gap
round the top, sides and bottom of the
product venting into the room or b) two
ducts of 150 sq cm (24 sq in) minimum
cross section from the room leading to
slots 300mm (12-in) wide x 50mm
(2-in) deep at top and bottom of the
compartment, in line with the gap
behind the product.
11 Heat – The product should be situated
away from heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat. No naked flame
sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the apparatus.
12 Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The product
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling
only as recommended by the
manufacturer.
13 Water and Moisture – To reduce the
risk of fire or electric shock, do not
