CARE AND SAFETY ________________________________________________
This device is designed for the playback of audio signals. Any other use is expressly
prohibited.
Prolonged use of the earphones can damage your hearing.
Make sure the device is protected from dripping or splashing water. Do not place any
vessels such as vases on the device. These may be knocked over and spill fluid on the elec-
trical components, thus presenting a safety risk. Do not place any naked flames such as
candles on the device.
When deciding where to place the device, please note that furniture surfaces are covered
by various types of varnish and plastic, most of which contain chemical additives. These
additives may cause corrosion to the feet of the unit and leave stains on the surface of the
furniture which could be difficult or impossible to remove.
Do not use any cleaning agents as they may damage the housing. Clean the device with a
clean, damp leather cloth.
Never open the device casing. No warranty claims are accepted for damage caused by
incorrect handling.
The type plate is located on the back of the device.
