uid enters the ST2 cabinet, unplug the unit from power immediately and

3. Location of ST2 – Place the ST2 in a well-ventilated location. Take spe-

cial care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the ST2 especial-
ly when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, the ST2

light or heating units as the ST2 internal components temperature may
rise and shorten the life of the components. Avoid damp and dusty
places.
