SAFETY INFORMATION
Important Safety Information
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your AVR580 has been designed for use
with 220–240-volt AC current. Connection
to a line voltage other than that for which
it is intended can create a safety and fire
hazard and may damage the unit.
Depending on the electrical requirements
in your area or the wiring in your home,
the power cords included with your AVR
may not be the correct ones, and you may
need to contact your local JBL distributor
to obtain the correct power cord.
If you have any questions about the volt-
age requirements for your specific model,
or about the line voltage in your area, con-
tact your selling dealer before plugging the
unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
To avoid safety hazards, use only the
power cord attached to your unit. We do
not recommend that extension cords be
used with this product. As with all elec-
trical devices, do not run power cords
under rugs or carpets or place heavy
objects on them. Damaged power cords
should be replaced immediately by an
authorized service center with a cord
meeting factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from
an AC outlet, always pull the plug; never
pull the cord. If you do not intend to use
the unit for any considerable length of
time, disconnect the plug from the AC
outlet.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user-serviceable compo-
nents inside this product. Opening the
cabinet may present a shock hazard, and
any modification to the product will void
your guarantee. If water or any metal
object such as a paper clip, wire or a
staple accidentally falls inside the unit,
disconnect it from the AC power source
immediately, and consult an authorized
service center.
Installation Location
■ To ensure proper operation and to
avoid the potential for safety hazards,
place the unit on a firm and level sur-
face. When placing the unit on a shelf,
be certain that the shelf and any
mounting hardware can support the
weight of the product.
■ Make certain that proper space is pro-
vided both above and below the unit
for ventilation. If this product will be
installed in a cabinet or other enclosed
area, make certain that there is suffi-
cient air movement within the cabinet.
Under some circumstances a fan may
be required.
■ Do not place the unit directly on a
carpeted surface.
■ Avoid installation in extremely hot or
cold locations, or in an area that is
exposed to direct sunlight or heating
equipment.
■ Avoid moist or humid locations.
■ Do not obstruct the ventilation slots
on the top of the unit, or place
objects directly over them.
■ Due to the weight of the AVR580 and
the heat generated by the amplifiers,
there is the remote possibility that
the rubber padding on the bottom of
the unit’s feet may leave marks on
certain wood or veneer materials. Use
caution when placing the unit on soft
woods or other materials that may be
damaged by heat or heavy objects.
Cleaning
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a
clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe
it with a soft cloth dampened with mild
soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean
water. Wipe dry immediately with a dry
cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol
cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any other
volatile cleaning agent. Do not use
abrasive cleaners, as they may damage
the finish of metal parts. Avoid spraying
insecticide near the unit.
Moving the Unit
Before moving the unit, be certain to
disconnect any interconnection cords
with other components, and make certain
that you disconnect the unit from the
AC outlet.
Unpacking
The carton and shipping materials used
to protect your new receiver during ship-
ment were specially designed to cushion
it from shock and vibration. We suggest
that you save the carton and packing
materials for use in shipping if you move,
or should the unit ever need repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in stor-
age, you may wish to flatten it. This is
done by carefully slitting the tape seams
on the bottom and collapsing the carton.
Other cardboard inserts may be stored in
the same manner. Packing materials that
cannot be collapsed should be saved
along with the carton in a plastic bag.
If you do not wish to save the packaging
materials, please note that the carton
and other sections of the shipping protec-
tion are recyclable. Please respect the
environment and discard those materials
at a local recycling center.
At this time you should remove the pro-
tective plastic film from the front-panel
lens. Leaving the film in place will affect
the performance of your remote control.
