• READ these instructions.
• KEEP these instructions.
• HEED all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this apparatus near water.
• Clean only with a dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarised or grounding-type plug. A polarised plug has two blades with one wider than
the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for
your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
• Only use attachements/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is
used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• The equipment must be set up so that the mains switch, mains plug and all connection on the rear of the device are easily
accessible.
• The equipment must be connected to a mains socket that has an earth contact.
• Never expose the equipment to rain or a high level of humidity. For this reason do not install it in the immediate vicinity of
swimming pools, showers, damp basement rooms or other areas with unusually high atmospheric humidity.
• Do not use the device/s outside. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this/these device/s to rain or
moisture.
• Never place objects containing liquid (e.g. vases or drinking glasses) on the equipment. Liquids in the equipment could cause a
short circuit.
• Lay all connection cables so that they do not present a trip hazard.
• Check whether the connection figures comply with the existing mains supply. Serious
damage could occur due to connecting the system to the wrong power supply. An
incorrect mains voltage could damage the equipment or cause an electric shock.
• This equipment needs adequate ventilation. Do not cover ventilation grilles. If the heat it generates cannot be dissipated, the
equipment could be damaged or flammable materials in its immediate vicinity could be ignited. Take care to ensure that the air
can circulate freely through the ventilation grilles and keep flammable materials away.
• Never place naked flames near the equipment.
• If the equipment causes a blown fuse or a short circuit, disconnect it from the mains and have it checked and repaired.
• Do not open the equipment without authorisation. You could receive an electric shock. Leave all service work to authorised expert
personnel.
• Do not hold the mains cable with wet hands. There must be no water or dust on the
contact pins. In both cases you could receive an electric shock.
• The mains cable must be firmly connected. If it is loose there is a fire hazard.
• Always pull out the mains cable from the mains and/or from the equipment by the plug - never by the cable. The cable could be
damaged and cause an electric shock or fire.
• If the power cable is connected, avoid contact of the unit with other metallic objects.
• Do not insert objects into the ventilation grilles or other openings. You could damage the equipment and/or injure yourself.
• Do not use the equipment if the mains plug is damaged.
• When installing the device into a 19" rack, make sure that the mains switch, mains plug and all connection on the rear of the
device are easily accessible.

• When connecting the headphone please ensure that the volume is turned down to minimum. Adjust the volume after putting on
the headphone. Do not set the volume too high, as you could permanently damage your hearing.
• With wired headphones you should avoid sharp movements, which could cause the headphone to fall off your head. You could be
seriously injured especially if you are wearing pierced earrings, spectacles etc. The cable could wind around your neck and cause
strangulation.
