the cabinet, unplug the amplifier and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.

the operating voltage is identical with
your local power supply. The operating
voltage is indicated on the nameplate at
the bottom of the amplifier.

• The amplifier is not disconnected from

the AC power source (mains) as long as
it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the amplifier itself has been turned off.

for a long time, be sure to disconnect the
amplifier from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the mains lead, grasp the
plug itself;  never pull the cord.

changed, at a qualified service shop only.

• The mains switch is located on the front

exterior.

• Do not install the appliance in a confined

space, such as a bookcase or built in
cabinet.

the speaker terminals may result in a
short-circuit.

Do not attempt to remove the grille on
the speaker system. If you try to remove
it, you may damage the speaker.
