Precautions
On safety
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, 
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified 
personnel before operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used 
for an extended period of time.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull 
the cord itself.
On operation and storage locations
Avoid operation or storage in any of the following places.
• Location subject to extremes of temperature (operating 
temperature range 5ºC to 40ºC (41ºF to 104ºF))
• Location subject to direct sunlight for long periods, or 
close to heating appliances (Note that the interior of a car 
left in summer with the windows closed can exceed 50ºC 
(122ºF).)
• Damp or dusty places
• Location subject to severe vibrations
• Location near equipment generating strong 
electromagnetic emissions
• Location near transmitting stations generating strong 
radio waves
Operate the unit in a horizontal position
This unit is designed to be operated in a horizontal 
position. Do not operate it on its side, or tilted through an 
excessive angle (exceeding 20º).
Avoid violent impacts
Dropping the unit, or otherwise imparting a violent shock 
to it, is likely to cause it to malfunction.
Do not obstruct ventilation openings
To prevent the unit from overheating, do not obstruct 
ventilation openings, by for example wrapping the unit in 
a cloth while it is in operation.
On cleaning
If the casing or panel is dirty, wipe it gently with a soft dry 
cloth. In the event of extreme dirt, use a cloth steeped in a 
neutral detergent to remove the dirt, then wipe with a dry 
cloth. Applying alcohol, thinners, insecticides, or other 
volatile solvents may result in deforming the casing or 
damaging the finish.
On repacking and shipping
Save the original shipping carton and packing material; 
they will come in handy if you ever have to ship your unit. 
For maximum protection, repack your unit as it was 
originally packed at the factory, and take care not to impart 
violent shocks in transit.
