Gebruiksaanwijzing
VEILIGHEIDSVOORZORGEN
Netvoeding
Deze uitrusting werd ontworpen om te werken op wisselstroom netvoeding van 230
volt, 50 Hz. Andere stroombronnen kunnen dit apparaat beschadigen.
Gelieve na te kijken of op het informatieplaatje van het apparaat 230 V wisselstroom
staat voordat u de stekker voor het eerst in een stopcontact stopt.
Netstekker
Wij hebben dit apparaat uitgerust met een standaard netstekker.
• Een beschadigd netsnoer mag uitsluitend worden vervangen door een goedgekeurd
netsnoer van hetzelfde type bij een gekwalificeerde, erkende reparatieservice.
• Wanneer u de stekker afsnijdt, bijvoorbeeld om een ander type stekker aan te
sluiten, verzoeken wij u de oude stekker te vernietigen omdat hij gevaarlijk kan
zijn wanneer iemand hem per ongeluk in een stopcontact onder stroomspanning
stopt. Volg nauwlettend de instructies voor de bekabeling die bij de nieuwe
stekker werden meegeleverd.
• Wanneer de stekker is voorzien van een zekering, verwijdert u de zekering voordat
u de stekker wegwerpt.
• Volg nauwlettend de instructies voor de bekabeling die bij de nieuwe netstekker
werden meegeleverd.
• Gebruik een stekker met zekering nooit zonder dat de afdekking van de zekering intact is.
Symbolen
Deze uitrusting is dubbel
geïsoleerd waardoor een
aardeaansluiting niet
vereist is.
Een gevaarlijk voltage dat
een risico voor elektrische
schokken inhoudt is binnenin
dit product aanwezig.
Deze markering is
aangebracht om aan te
geven dat het apparaat
voldoet aan de Europese
normen voor veiligheid
en elektromagnetische
congruentie.
Belangrijke instructies voor
het gebruik en onderhoud
zijn ingesloten in de
documentatie die bij dit
product werd meegeleverd.
Veilig gebruik en onderhoud van uw audio-apparatuur
Hoewel wij dit product hebben ontworpen en vervaardigd in overeenstemming met
de Europese veiligheidsnonnen, moet men zoals met alle elektrische apparatuur
voorzichtig zijn om een zo lang mogelijke gebruiksduur en veilig gebruik te garand-
eren. Hier volgen enkele tips om u daarbij te helpen.
• Lees deze gebruiksaanwijzing aandachtig voordat u dit apparaat in gebruik neemt.
• Bescherm het netsnoer. U dient ervoor te zorgen dat niemand over het netsnoer
kan vallen en dat het netsnoer niet platgedrukt, geschaafd, gesneden enz. wordt.
• Voorkom omstandigheden die problemen kunnen veroorzaken zoals natte of
stomende ruimtes, een hoge vochtigheidsgraad, sterke trillingen, extreem hoge of
lage temperaturen, rechtstreeks zonlicht en zeer stoffige ruimtes.
• Sta nooit toe dat iemand voorwerpen in de openingen en ventilatiesleuven stopt.
VEILIGHEIDSVOORZORGEN
• Om stroom te besparen schakelt u de netvoeding uit of verwijdert u de netstekker
uit het stopcontact wanneer het apparaat niet in gebruik is, tenzij de functie van
het apparaat een ononderbroken stroomvoeding vereist.
• Gebruik dit apparaat niet wanneer er vloeistof op is gemorst, wanneer het op de
een of andere manier beschadigd is of wanneer het abnormaal functioneert. Trek
de stekker dan meteen uit het stopcontact en vraag advies aan een specialist.
• Trek tijdens onweer de netstekker uit het stopcontact.
• Dit product is uitsluitend bestemd voor huishoudelijk gebruik. Alle andere vormen
van gebruik kunnen de garantie teniet doen en gevaarlijk zijn.
Ventilatie
Zet dit apparaat neer op een harde, vlakke ondergrond waar het niet aan rechtstreeks
zonlicht of warmtebronnen kan worden blootgesteld. Wanneer u dit apparaat in
een kast zet, moet u aan alle zijden een minimum van 10 cm vrije ruimte voorzien.
Blokkeer de ventilatieopeningen niet, ook niet de ventilatieopeningen onderaan
het apparaat door het neer te zetten op een zachte stoffering e.d. Door oververhit-
ting kan de gebruiksduur van dit apparaat drastisch verkorten en bestaat een groter
brandgevaar.
