Battery use
• Do not disassemble a battery. If the contents of the
battery get on your hands or in your eyes, it can
cause blindness or chemical burns.
• Do not dispose of a battery in fire. Do not expose a
battery to high temperatures, such as direct sunlight
or a fire. Doing so may result in the battery bursting,
causing a fire or injury.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not
intended to be charged. Charging could cause the
battery to burst or leak, which can cause blindness,
chemical burns, or injury.
• If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked
fluid. If the battery fluid should come in contact with
your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immediately with
water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive
and may possibly cause loss of sight or chemical
burns.
CAUTION
This content indicates “risk of injury.”
Power supply
• Do not use an AC outlet where the power plug fits
loosely when inserted. Failure to observe this may
cause a fire, electric shocks, or burns.
• When disconnecting the power plug, always hold the
plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can
damage it and cause electric shocks or a fire.
• Insert the power plug firmly all the way into the AC
outlet. Using the unit when it is not plugged in
sufficiently can cause dust to accumulate on the plug,
causing a fire or burns.
Installation
• Do not place the unit in an unstable position where it
might accidentally drop or fall over and cause injuries.
• When installing this unit, do not obstruct heat
dissipation.
- Do not cover it with any cloth.
- Do not install it on a carpet or rug
- Do not block this unit's ventilation holes (cooling
slits).
- Do not install the unit in other ways than indicated.
- Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-
ventilated location.
Failure to observe the above may trap heat inside the unit,
causing a fire or malfunctions. Ensure that there is
adequate space around the unit: at least 30 cm (11-3/4 in)
on top, 20 cm (7-7/8 in) on the sides, and 20 cm (7-7/8 in)
on the rear.
• Do not install the unit in places where it may come into
contact with corrosive gases or salt air or places that
have excessive smoke or steam. Doing so may result
in malfunction.
• Avoid being near the unit during a disaster, such as
an earthquake. Since the unit may turn over or fall and
cause injury, quickly move away from the unit and go
to a safe place.
• When transporting or moving the unit always use two
or more people. Attempting to lift the unit by yourself
may damage your back, result in other injury, or cause
damage to the unit itself.
•
Before moving this unit, be sure to turn off the power
switch and disconnect all connection cables.
Failure to
observe this may damage the cables or cause you or
someone else to trip and fall.
Hearing loss
• Do not use the unit for a long period of time at a high
or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause
permanent hearing loss. If you experience any
hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
• Before connecting the unit to other devices, turn off
the power for all devices. Also, before turning the
power of all devices on or off, make sure that all
volume levels are set to the minimum. Failing to do so
may result in hearing loss, electric shock, or device
damage.
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system,
always turn on the unit LAST, to avoid hearing loss
and speaker damage. When turning the power off, the
unit should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
Failure to observe the above may cause hearing
impairment or speaker damage.
Maintenance
• Remove the power plug from the AC outlet before
cleaning the unit. Failure to observe this may cause
electric shocks.
Handling caution

label. Doing so may cause burns. The
label on the device indicates that the
surface to which the label is attached
may become hot during operation.
• Do not insert foreign materials such as metal or paper
into the openings of this unit. Failure to observe this
may cause a fire, electric shocks, or malfunctions.
• Keep small parts out of the reach of infants. Your
children may accidentally swallow them.
• Do not do the following:
- Stand on or sit on the equipment.
- Put heavy items on top of the equipment.
- Place the equipment in a stack.
- Apply unreasonable force to buttons, switches,
input/output terminals, etc.
Failure to observe this may cause injuries or damage
to the equipment.
• Avoid pulling the connected cables to prevent injuries
or damage to the unit by causing it to fall.
