Important Safety Instructions
For your own safety you should read through this chapter at rst completely!
Risk of electrical shocks!
Only connect the device to a properly wired and earthed mains power socket with mains voltage of •
230 V ~ /50 Hz.
Do not operate the device if the power cord or the mains plug are damaged.•
Never submerse the device in water. Wipe it with a slightly moistened cloth only.•
Do not expose the device to rain and never use it in a damp or wet environment.•
Make sure that the power cord never becomes wet or moist during use.•
Under no circumstances may you open the device housing. Should you do so your safety would not be •
assured and the warranty will become void. There are no operational components whatsoever inside, only
really high voltage that can give you a deadly shock!
Do not place objects containing uids, e.g. ower vases or beer bottles, on or near the device.•
Always operate the device only on a correctly earthed socket, never sever the power cord’s earth wire. •
Otherwise a LIFE THREATENING situation exists!
Notice regarding disconnection from mains-power: •
To completely disconnect the device from mains power, you must pull the plug from the power socket. For
this reason the device should be placed in a position where unobstructed access to the power socket is
assured at all times, so that in an emergency you will be able to immediately pull out the plug. To eliminate
the risk of re you should completely disconnect the power plug from the power socket when the device is
not going to be used.
Always grasp the power cord by the plug. Do not pull on the cord itself and never touch the power cord with •
wet hands as this could result in a short circuit or an electrical shock. Do not place the device, speakers or
anything else on the power cord and make sure that it does not become clamped. Never tie knots in the
power cord and do not bind it together with other cables. Lay the power cord so that no one can step on or
stumble over it. A damaged power cord can cause a re or an electrical shock. Check the power cord from
time to time. Should it become damaged contact our customer service department to have it replaced.
Never manipulate the power cord of the plug. If a power cord is provided with an earth lead, this is •
mandatory to ensure safe operation!
 Riskofre!
Never leave the device unattended during operation.•
Never cover the ventilation slots of the device while it is on. Do not place the device in locations that are •
subject to direct sunlight. If you do, it may overheat and become irreparably damaged.
Do not operate the amplier on surfaces that restrict normal airow around the device, for example, a bed, •
sofa, carpet or similar surfaces.
Do not place open re sources, such as candles, on the device.•
Never operate the amplier in the vicinity of heat sources such as cookers, heating elements or other heat •
producing installations.
Before a storm and/or a thunderstorm with a risk of lightning, please disconnect the device from the •
electrical power source.
Risk of personal injury!
Keep children away from the power cord and the device. Children frequently underestimate the dangers of •
electrical devices.
Provide a stable location for the device.•
Do not operate the device if it has sustained a fall or is damaged. Have the device checked or, •
if necessary, repaired by qualied technicians.
Don’t expose yourself to excessive sound pressure levels. Even a SPL of just 90dB may damage •
your hearing.
