Important Safety Instructions
Warning: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed,
including the ones listed below. Read and follow these instructions. Keep these instructions.
Heed all warnings.
Do not use this product near water.
Clean only with a dry cloth.
Do not block any of the ventilation openings.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a
third grounding plug. The wide blade or third prong is provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point they exit from the apparatus.
Note for UK only: If the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this unit do not
correspond with the terminals in your plug , proceed as follows:
a) The wire that is colored green and yellow must be connected to the terminal that is
marked by the letter E, the earth symbol, colored green or colored green and yellow.
b) The wire that is colored blue must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the
letter N or the color black.
c) The wire that is colored brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with
the letter L or the color red.
Only use attachments/accessories provided by the manufacturer.Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in
any way, such as the power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
Never break off the ground pin. Write for our free booklet Shock Hazard and Grounding.
Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the power
supply cord.
Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals
vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will
lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S.
Government’s Occupational and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the
following permissible noise level exposures:
Duration Per Day in Hours Sound Level dBA, Slow
