MPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: READ THIS USER MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
1. To assure the fi nest performance, please read this manual carefully.
Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2. Your Olive music center is designed for recording and playing back
encoded digital audio signals and for the burning of audio CDs. Any
other usage is explicitly excluded.
3. Install this unit in a cool, dry and clean place – away from windows,
heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust, moisture and cold,
which could damage its components. Avoid sources of humming
(transformers, motors). To prevent fi re or electrical shock, do not ex-
pose the unit to rain or water.
4. Water and Moisture - Do not use this product near water - for
example near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in
a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like. Avoid
sudden temperature changes. Condensation water may be created
inside the device whilst moving it from a cold to a warm location or
using it in a moist room. The unit may no longer work properly.
Should the situation arise, remove CD, CD-R or CD-RW from the unit,
switch it off and wait at least an hour until the moisture evaporates.
Caution: This device is not equipped with a moisture sensor.
5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or
adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a
cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the
product should follow the manufacturerʼs instructions and should use
a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
6. For your own safety do not attempt to open the case of the Olive
music center, or disassemble it. You run the risk of electric shock and
voiding the limited warranty. No user-serviceable parts are inside.
Contact your dealer if something drops into the case.
7. Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When
moving the unit, fi rst disconnect the power
plug and the wires
connected to other equipment. Never pull the wires themselves, only
the plugs.
8. Do not attempt to clean the unit with aerosol sprays, chemical
solvents, alcohol, or abrasives, or to remove dust with air pressure;
this might damage the fi nish or affect the performance. Use a clean,
soft and dry cloth. Unplug the product from the wall outlet before
cleaning.
9. Be sure to read the “HELP” section regarding common operating
errors before concluding that the unit is faulty.
10. Before plugging your unit into the AC main supply, make sure that
the voltage indicated at the back of the unit complies with the local
main voltage.
11. When planning not to use this unit for long periods of time (i.e.
vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
Doing so, always grab the plug, never the cable itself.
12. To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug when
there is an electrical storm.
13. This unit is not to be disconnected from the AC power source if it is in
standby mode. Doing so might damage your Olive music center.
14. Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port do
not join with reasonable ease, they probably donʼt match. Make
sure that the connector matches the port and that you have posi-
tioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
15. Environmental notice: Batteries – even those containing no heavy
metal – may not be disposed of in household waste. Used batteries
must be disposed of properly in appropriate waste sites according
to local environmental regulations.
16. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the product and in the operating
instructions should be adhered to.
17. Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended by the
product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

18. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to
protect it
from overheating. Do not block any ventilation openings.
The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a
bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. This product should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack mount.
19. Grounding or Polarization - If this product is equipped with a
polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other), it will fi t into the outlet only one way. This
is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug does not fi t into the
outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. If this product
is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a
third (grounding) pin, it will only work in a grounding type power
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete out
let. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug.
20. Power Cord Protection - Power-supply cords should be protected
from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
21. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fi re or
electric shock.
22. Object and Liquid entry - Never push objects of any kind into this
product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short-out parts that could result in a fi re or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
23. Damage Requiring Service - Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service
personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
24. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure
the service technician has used replacement parts specifi ed by the
manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fi re, electric shock, or other
hazards.
25. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
26. Heat - Do not install near any heat source such as radiators, heat
registers, stores, or other apparatus (including amplifi ers) that
produce heat.
The manufacturer of this device shall not be liable for damage or loss of data
including but not limited to music recorded to storage devices. It is the
customerʼs responsibility to maintain the original media and/or appropriate
backup copies within the specifi c rights of the mediaʼs copyright holder.
