radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio

Precautions
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the amplifier
and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any
further.
On power sources
Before operating the amplifier, check
that the operating voltage is identical
with your local power supply. The
operating voltage is indicated on the
nameplate at the rear of the amplifier.
If you are not going to use the
amplifier for a long time, be sure to
disconnect the amplifier from the
wall outlet. To disconnect the AC
power cord, grasp the plug itself;
never pull the cord.
One blade of the plug is wider than
the other for the purpose of safety
and will fit into the wall outlet only
one way. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, contact
your dealer.
Should the AC power cord need to be
changed, have it done at a qualified
service shop only.
On placement
Place the amplifier in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
build-up and prolong the life of the
amplifier.
Do not place the amplifier near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or
mechanical shock.
Do not place anything on top of the
cabinet that might block the
ventilation holes and cause
malfunctions.
On operation
Before connecting other components, be
sure to turn off and unplug the
amplifier.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls
with a soft cloth slightly moistened with
a mild detergent solution. Do not use
any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
If you have any question or problem
concerning your amplifier, please
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
