Precautions
On safety
• Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the receiver
and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any
further.
• To prevent fire, do not cover the
ventilation of the receiver with
newspapers, table cloths, curtains,
etc. And don’t place lighted candles
on the receiver.
• To prevent fire or shock hazards, do
not place vases on the receiver.
On power sources
• Before operating the receiver, 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 receiver.
• The unit is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it
is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the unit itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the
receiver for a long time, be sure to
disconnect the receiver from the wall
outlet. To disconnect the mains lead,
grasp the plug itself; never pull the
cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only
at the qualified service shop.
• The mains switch is located on the
front exterior.
On placement
• Place the receiver in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
build-up and prolong the life of the
receiver.
• Do not place the receiver 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.
• Although the receiver heats up
during operation, this is not a
malfunction. If you continuously use
this receiver at a large volume, the
cabinet temperature of the top, side
and bottom rises considerably. To
avoid burning yourself, do not touch
the cabinet.
On operation
• Before connecting other components,
be sure to turn off and unplug the
receiver.
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 receiver, please
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
