Safety precautions
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, high
humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and other
components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life. Do not place heavy items on the
unit.
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and cause a fire. Do
not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting the unit up on a
ship or other place where DC is used.
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor connection
and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy
items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains lead can cause
electric shock. Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric shock or
malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or malfunction. If this
occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable gases which
can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted, indicators fail to
light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not covered in these instructions
occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or an authorized service
center. Electric shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired,
disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it is not to be
used for a long time.
