WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.

  • This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
  • This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operation and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Caution: To prevent electric shock do not use this (polarized) plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

  • WARNING FOR YOUR PROTECTION PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING-WATER AND MOISTURE: Unit should not be used near water(e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc). Care should be taken so than objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

  • CLASS 2 WIRING (Adjacent to speaker terminal): The speaker output of this apparatus can exceed 10 Watts and could be a shock injury.
    Connection to speakers should be performed by a skilled person.

  • Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a book case or similar unit.

  • Warning : To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture and objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should not be placed on this apparatus.

  • This apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

  • To completely disconnect this apparatus from the AC mains, disconnect the power supply cord plug from the AC receptacle.

  • The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily accessible.

  • CAUTION

    • These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
  • NOTE

    • This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
