IMPORTANT NOTES
291b
In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING
THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 2–5, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply
301
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical
outlet that is being used by an electrical
appliance that is controlled by an inverter
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that
contains a motor. Depending on the way in
which the electrical appliance is used, power
supply noise may cause this unit to
malfunction or may produce audible noise. If
it is not practical to use a separate electrical
outlet, connect a power supply noise filter
between this unit and the electrical outlet.
307
• Before connecting this unit to other devices,
turn off the power to all units. This will help
prevent malfunctions and/or damage to
speakers or other devices.
308 (modified)
• Although the LED is switched off when the
STANDBY switch is switched off, this does
not mean that the unit has been completely
disconnected from the source of power. If you
need to turn off the power completely, first
turn off the STANDBY switch, then unplug
the power cord from the power outlet. For this
reason, the outlet into which you choose to
connect the power cord’s plug should be one
that is within easy reach and readily acces-
sible.

Placement
351
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other
equipment containing large power trans-
formers) may induce hum. To alleviate the
problem, change the orientation of this unit;
or move it farther away from the source of
interference.
352a
• This device may interfere with radio and
television reception. Do not use this device in
the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
• Noise may be produced if wireless communi-
cations devices, such as cell phones, are
operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise
could occur when receiving or initiating a call,
or while conversing. Should you experience
such problems, you should relocate such
wireless devices so they are at a greater
distance from this unit, or switch them off.
354a
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight,
place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it
inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise
subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive
heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
• When moved from one location to another
where the temperature and/or humidity is
very different, water droplets (condensation)
may form inside the unit. Damage or
malfunction may result if you attempt to use
the unit in this condition. Therefore, before
using the unit, you must allow it to stand for
several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.
360
• Depending on the material and temperature
of the surface on which you place the unit, its
rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the
rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If
you do so, please make sure that the unit will
not slip or move accidentally.
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a
soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly
dampened with water. To remove stubborn
dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild,
non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure
to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry
cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or
solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility
of discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using
the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls;
and when using its jacks and connectors.
Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables,
grasp the connector itself—never pull on the
cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts,
or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
557
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the
unit during normal operation.
558b
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to
keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels
(especially when it is late at night).
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package
it in the box (including padding) that it came
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
562
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do
not use cables that incorporate resistors for
connecting to this unit. The use of such cables
can cause the sound level to be extremely low,
or impossible to hear. For information on
cable specifications, contact the manufacturer
of the cable.
