Do not use the unit on a bed, sofa, rug or
similar surface that may block the ventila-
tion openings. This unit should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase or rack unless proper ventila-
tion is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
5 Water and moisture. The unit should
not be used near water. for example,
near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool, etc.
6 Temperature. The unit may not func-
tion properly if used at extremely low, or
freezing temperatures. The ideal ambient
temperature is above +41ºF.
7 Heat. The unit should be situated away
from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other units (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
8 Electric Shock. Care should be taken
so that objects do not fall and liquid is
not spilled into the enclosure through
openings. If a metal object, such as a hair
pin or a needle, comes into contact with
the inside of this unit, a dangerous electric
shock may result. For families with chil-
dren, never permit children to put
anything, especially metal, inside this unit.
9 Enclosure removal. Never remove
the enclosure. If the internal parts are
touched accidentally, a serious electric
shock might occur.
10 Cleaning. Unplug this unit from the wall
outlet before cleaning. Do not use
volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint
thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean
the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.
11 Lightning. For added protection for this
unit during a lightning storm, or when it is
left unattended and unused for long peri-
ods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the
unit due to lightning and power-line
surges.
12 Abnormal smell. If an abnormal smell
or smoke is detected, immediately turn
the power OFF and unplug the unit from
the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or
nearest service center.
13 Damage requiring service. The unit
should be serviced by qualified service
personnel when:
The power-supply cord or the plug has
been damaged.
Objects have fallen, or liquid has been
spilled into the unit.
The unit has been exposed to rain or
water.
The unit has been dropped, or the enclo-
sure damaged.
The unit exhibits a marked change in
performance.
The unit does not appear to operate
normally by following the instruction
manual. Adjust only those controls that
are covered by the instruction manual as
an improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the unit to its
normal operation.
14 Servicing. The user should not attempt
to service the unit beyond that described
in the instruction manual. All other servic-
ing should be referred to qualified service
personnel.
15 Power lines. An outside antenna
system should not be located in the vicin-
ity of overhead power lines or other elec-
tric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits.
When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or
circuits as contact with them might be
fatal.
16 AC outlets. Do not connect other
audio equipment with a power consump-
tion larger than that specified to the AC
outlet on the rear panel. Never connect
other electrical units, such as an iron or
toaster, to it to prevent fire or electric
shock.
17 Overloading. Do not overload wall
outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18 Attachment. Do not use attachments
not recommended by the unit manufac-
turer as they may cause hazards.
19 Replacement parts. When replace-
ment parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer or
have the same characteristics as the origi-
nal parts. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
20 Safety check. Upon completion of any
service or repairs to this unit, ask the
service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the unit is in
proper operating condition.
21 Carts and stands. Don’t put this unit
on a cart or stand that is unsteady or that
can not support the unit’s weight. If you
move this unit on a cart or stand, be
careful—quick stops, excessive force and
pushing over or uneven surfaces, may
cause the cart to overturn and damage
your equipment.
