Important safety instructions

This product is 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 this appliance. Retain
this handbook for future reference and adhere to all
warnings in the handbook or on the appliance.
2. Water and moisture
The presence of electricity near water can be
dangerous. Do not use the appliance near water – for
example 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 through any openings.
Liquid-filled objects such as vases should not be
placed on the equipment.
4. Ventilation
Do not place the equipment 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 around
the sides and top of the appliance to provide
adequate ventilation.
5. Heat
Locate the appliance away from naked flames or
heat producing equipment such as radiators, stoves
or other appliances (including other amplifiers) that
produce heat.
6. Climate
The appliance has 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 the unit from the mains supply before
cleaning.
The case 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 the appliance to a power supply of the
type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.
The primary method of isolating Solo Movie 5.1 from
the mains supply is to use the switch on the rear of
the unit. Solo Movie 5.1 must be installed in a manner
that makes disconnection possible.
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, paying particular attention to
cords and plugs, and the point where they exit from
the appliance.
11. Power lines
Locate any outdoor antenna/aerial away from power
lines.
12. Non-use periods
If the unit has a stand-by function, a small amount of
current will continue to flow into the equipment in
this mode. Unplug the power cord of the appliance
from the outlet if left unused for a long period of
time.

13. Abnormal smell
If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from the
appliance, turn the power off immediately and unplug
the unit from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer
immediately.
14. Servicing
You should not attempt to service the appliance
beyond that which is described in this handbook. All
other servicing should be referred to qualified service
personnel.
15. Damage requiring service
The appliance should be serviced by qualified service
personnel when:

A. the power-supply cord or the plug has been

damaged, or

B. objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into

the appliance, or

C. the appliance has been exposed to rain, or
D. the appliance does not appear to operate

normally or exhibits a marked change in

performance, or

E. the appliance has been dropped or the

enclosure damaged.
