the supplied template. Use a drill to
make the holes (size 6.5 mm dia.,

Caution
• Since the unit is very heavy, be careful when
installing the unit.
• To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any
heating or cooking appliance beneath this unit.
• Install the unit so that its AC power cord can
be connected directly to a wall outlet. Do not
use a converter or extension cord.
• Be sure that the AC power cord has no slack
when using the unit, since the cord acts as an
FM wire antenna. If the AC power cord has
some slack, wind it up to the cord hook until
the cord has no slack.
• The unit has a built-in ferrite bar antenna for
AM radio reception. Check the condition of
AM reception before fixing in position.
• Install the unit as far as possible from a source
of noise. (for example, refrigerator, microwave
oven, fluorescent lamp, etc.)
