CARE AND CLEANING 
Under normal use, the amplifier will not require any special care. Clean the exterior of the unit by wiping it with a 
damp cloth to remove any dirt or dust that accumulates. Do not let any liquid enter the amplifier through its vents 
or top cover. It is recommended that the connectors on the rear panel be cleaned annually using isopropyl 
alcohol.
