SAFETY PRECAUTIONS A triangle with a lightning symbol draws the user's attention to "dangerous voltage" without insulation in the cabinet which may be high enough to entail a risk of electric shock. A triangle with an exclamation mark draws the user's attention to important instructions for use and maintenance in the accompanying manual, which should be studied.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ AND OBSERVE BOTH THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AND THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE UNIT. KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. This unit was designed and manufactured with a view to providing maximum safety for the user. Incorrect use of the unit may cause electrical shock or fire. The protection devices built into this unit will protect the user if the procedures below are observed in connection with installation, use and repair.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Lightning Unplug the unit for additional protection during thunder or when the unit is not used for prolonged periods. This will prevent damage to the unit from lightning and power surges. Penetration of objects and liquid Never push any foreign objects through the openings into the unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-circuit parts and thus cause fire or electric shock. Do not spill liquid on the unit.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Handling instructions Condensation Condensation may occur in the following cases: The top and back panel of the unit may become warm after prolonged use. This is not due to a defect. When the unit is moved directly from a cold to a warm place. Turn off the power when the unit is not used. When the unit is used in a room where the radiator has just been switched on or a place where the cold air from the air-conditioning system is directed at the unit.
CONNECTION Do not turn on the power before all connections have been made correctly. Check that all connections have been made correctly before turning on the power. Check that the mains voltage is 230-240V AC50Hz before turning on the power. Connection to the mains Check that all other connections have been made correctly before inserting the mains plug into the wall socket. Then insert the plug into a suitable socket. If the unit is to be used abroad, you may need an adapter.
REMOTE CONTROL Installation of batteries Remove the cover as illustrated. Replace the cover. Position two batteries of the type AAA/R03/UM4 in the battery compartment. Make sure that the orientation of the batteries is correct (see drawing at bottom). Do not mix new and old batteries and do not use different types of batteries. If the remote control is not used for prolonged periods, remove the batteries from the remote control to avoid corrosion.
Some of the functions of the unit can only be performed by means of the remote control. Some functions are connected with the selected signal input source. Some buttons on the remote control may therefore not be available if the corresponding signal input source has not been selected.
