Panasonic SC-HTB500 User Manual

1 Exercise care when selecting the location for the unit because it may discolour or deform due to 

light or heat if it is placed where it is exposed to direct sunlight, or near a heater.

2 Clean the wall mount brackets by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth (such as cotton or flannel). If the 

wall mount brackets are very dirty, remove the dirt using a neutral detergent diluted in water, and 
then wipe them clean with a dry cloth.
Do not use benzine, thinner, or furniture wax as this may cause the coating to peel.
(For information on cleaning the unit, see the unit’s instruction manual (> 5). If using a chemically 
treated cloth, follow the instructions supplied with the cloth.)

≥ The wall mount brackets are for use in attaching the unit to a vertical wall. Do not attach to any surface 

other than a vertical wall.

≥ To ensure correct unit performance and prevent trouble, do not install at any of the following locations:

jNear sprinklers or fire/smoke detectors

jWhere there is a risk of exposure to vibration or impact

jNear high-voltage wires or dynamic power supplies

jNear sources of magnetism, heat, water vapour or soot

jLocations exposed to air blown from heating equipment

jWhere droplets of condensation from an air conditioner or other unit may form.

≥ Attach using techniques suited to the structure and materials of the installation location.
≥ Spread a soft blanket or cloth over the floor so that the unit and floor will not be marked or scratched 

during the assembly and installation work.

≥ When screwing down the parts, ensure that the screws are neither insufficiently tightened nor over 

tightened.

≥ Take sufficient care to ensure safety around you when performing the assembly and installation work 

or while moving about during the course of the work.

≥ Do not install the unit underneath ceiling lamps (spotlights, halogen lamps, etc.). Otherwise, the 

cabinet may be bent or damaged by high heat.
