6-3. Storage and Shipment 
 
CAUTION   
Should it be necessary to ship the amplifier, use the original packing as described below. 
 
Switch off the amplifier, pull the line (mains) plug out of the outlet, disconnect all cables from the rear panel 
of the amplifier (remove the ground connection the last), and then pack the amplifier in its original carton.  
 
a)  Acceptable storage environment: The amplifier may be kept packed in a dry, ventilated and unheated 
location (with no chemically active substances such as acids or alkalis) within the following environment 
ranges: 
- Temperature range: -40 to +70 degrees Celsius 
- Humidity: up to 75% @ +35 degrees Celsius. 
 
b)   Shipping Size and Weight: WxDxH: 530x470x280mm,
 
18kg (21x18.5x11 inches, 39.6Lbs).
 
c)   All types of transportation may be used, including storage in an aircraft baggage compartment at up to 
12000 meters above sea level.
