PROTECTING YOURSELF AND THE MPC4000
Never touch the AC plug with wet hands.
Always disconnect the MPC4000 from the power supply by pulling on the plug, not the cord.
Allow only an AKAI professional dealer or qualified professional engineer to repair or reas-
semble the MPC4000. Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch
live internal parts and receive a serious electrical shock. There are no user serviceable parts
inside.
Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the MPC4000.
Use only a household AC power supply. Never use a DC power supply.
If water or any other liquid is spilled into or onto the MPC4000, disconnect the power, and call
your dealer.
Make sure that the unit is well-ventilated, and away from direct sunlight.
To avoid damage to internal circuitry, as well as the external finish, keep the MPC4000 away
from sources of direct heat (stoves, radiators, etc.).
Avoid using aerosol insecticides, etc. near the MPC4000. They may damage the surface, and
may ignite.
Do not use denatured alcohol, thinner or similar chemicals to clean the MPC4000. They will
damage the finish.
Modification of this equipment is dangerous, and can result in the functions of the MPC4000
being impaired. Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way.
Make sure that the MPC4000 is always well-supported when in use (either in a specially-
designed equipment rack, or on a firm level surface).
In order to assure optimum performance of your MPC4000, select the setup location carefully,
and make sure the equipment is used properly. Avoid setting up the MPC4000 in the following
locations:
1. In a humid or dusty environment
2. In a room with poor ventilation
3. On a surface which is not horizontal
4. Inside a vehicle such as a car, where it will be subject to vibration
5. In an extremely hot or cold environment
