Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct 
sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive 
vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and 
other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid 
distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload 
the unit and cause a fi re.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully 
when setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC 
is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not 
damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fi re 
or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on 
the lead.
Grasp the plug fi rmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the 
AC mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause 
electric shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause 
electric shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric 
shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect 
the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain 
fl ammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is 
interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any 
other problem that is not covered in these instructions occurs, 
disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or 
an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to 
the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or 
reconstructed by unqualifi ed persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the 
power source if it is not to be used for a long time.
Placement of speakers
Use only the supplied speakers.
The combination of the main unit and speakers provide the 
best sound. Using other speakers can damage the unit and 
sound quality will be negatively affected.
Note
• Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for 
proper ventilation.
• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not place 
them near televisions, personal computers or other devices easily 
infl uenced by magnetism.
•  You cannot take the front net off the speakers.
Caution
• Use the speakers only with the recommended 
system. Failure to do so can damage the amplifi er 
and speakers, and can cause fi re. Consult a qualifi ed 
service person if damage occurs or if a sudden 
change in performance is apparent.
•  Do not attach these speakers to walls or ceilings.
