recommended by the manufacturer.

8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with

its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar

surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a book case

or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
