described in this manual or as marked on the equipment.
Grounding or Polarization
Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the amplifier.

interfere with its proper ventilation.
1. The equipment must not be placed on bed, sofa, or similar surfaces, that
