Important safety instructions
These products are designed and manufactured to meet 
strict quality and safety standards. However, you should 
be aware of the following installation and operation 
precautions:
1.  Take heed of warnings and instructions
You should read all the safety and operating instructions 
before operating these products. Retain this handbook for 
future reference and adhere to all warnings in the handbook 
or on the product itself.
2.  Water and moisture
The presence of electricity near water can be dangerous. Do 
not use these appliances near water – next to a bathtub, 
washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet basement or near a 
swimming pool, etc.
3.  Object or liquid entry
Take care that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled 
into the enclosure of a unit through any openings. Liquid-
lled objects such as vases should not be placed on these 
products.
4.  Ventilation
Do not place these units on a bed, sofa, rug or similar 
soft surface, or in an enclosed bookcase or cabinet, since 
ventilation may be impeded. We recommend a minimum 
distance of 50mm (2 inches) around the sides and top of 
the each unit to provide adequate ventilation.
5.  Heat
Locate these products away from naked ames or heat 
producing equipment such as radiators, stoves or other 
appliances (including other ampliers) that produce heat.
6.  Climate
These products have been designed for use in moderate 
climates.
7.  Racks and stands
Only use a rack or stand that is recommended for use with 
audio equipment. If the equipment is on a portable rack it 
should be moved with great care, to avoid overturning the 
combination.
8.  Cleaning
Unplug a unit from the mains power supply before cleaning.
The cases should normally only require a wipe with a soft, 
damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use paint thinners or other 
chemical solvents for cleaning.
We do not advise the use of furniture cleaning sprays or 
polishes as they can cause indelible white marks if the unit 
is subsequently wiped with a damp cloth.
9.  Power sources
Only connect an unit to a power supply of the type 
described in the operating instructions or as marked on the

The primary method of isolating these products from the 
mains supply is to remove the mains lead from the rear of 
the unit. These products must be installed in manner that 
makes this disconnection possible.
These are Class 1 devices and must be earthed.
10. Power-cord protection
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not 
likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or 
against them. Pay particular attention to cords and plugs, 
and the point where they exit from the unit.
11. Grounding
Ensure that the grounding means of these products is not 
defeated.
12. Power lines
Locate any outdoor antenna/aerial away from power lines.
13. Non-use periods 
When using the stand-by function, a small amount of 
current will continue to ow into the unit. Unplug the power 
cord of a unit from the outlet if it is to be left unused for a 
long period of time.
14. Abnormal smell
If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from a unit, turn 
the power off immediately and unplug the unit from the 
wall outlet. Contact your dealer for further advice.
