Handling caution
• Be careful not to drop or apply strong impact to this
unit. Failure to observe this may cause electric shocks,
a fire, or malfunctions.
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 removing the electric plug from the unit or an AC
outlet, 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).
- Make sure the top surface faces up; do not install on
its sides or upside down.
- Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated
location.
This unit has ventilation holes on the top to prevent the
internal temperature from becoming too high. 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 7 cm (2-3/4 in)
on top, 2 cm (3/4 in) on the sides, and 2 cm (3/4 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 headphones 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.
Maintenance
• Remove the power plug from the AC outlet before
cleaning the unit. Failure to observe this may cause
electric shocks.
Handling caution
• Do not insert foreign materials such as metal or paper
into the ventilation holes 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.
• Do not operate the unit if the sound is distorting.
Prolonged use in this condition could cause
overheating and result in fire.
