IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your Unit is designed and manufactured to operate within dened design limits, and misuse may result in electric shock or re. To prevent your Unit from being damaged,
the following rules should be observed for its installation, use, and maintenance. Please read the following safety instructions before operating your Unit. Keep these
instructions in a safe place for future reference.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this Unit near water.
• Clean only with a dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other Unit (including ampliers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has
two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at the ends where the plug is located, near convenience receptacles, or where they exit from the Unit.
• Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
• Use only with the stand, tripod, or bracket specied by the manufacturer, or sold with the Unit. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/Unit
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this Unit during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the Unit has been damaged in any way, such as when the power supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the Unit, the Unit has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch o the power before connecting other components to your Unit.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning your Unit. A damp cloth is sucient for cleaning. Do not use a liquid or a spray cleaner on your Unit. Do not use abrasive
cleaners.
• Always use the accessories recommended by the manufacturer to ensure compatibility.
• When moving your Unit from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature, condensation may form in the housing. Wait before turning on your Unit to
avoid causing re, electric shock, or component damage.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the Unit are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of your Unit and to protect it from overheating, be sure
these openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place your Unit in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Never push any object into the slots and openings on your Unit. Do not place any objects on the top of your Unit. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a re or
electric shock. Never spill liquids on your Unit.
• Do not block the subwoofer ports. Allow for 1-2 inches of space around all sides for ventilation.
• WARNING: Exposure to loud sounds can damage your hearing causing hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears). With continued exposure to loud
noises, ears may become accustomed to the sound level, which may result in permanent damage to hearing without any noticeable discomfort.
• When connected to a power outlet, power is always owing into your Unit. To totally disconnect power, unplug the power cord.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in re or electric shock.
• The wall socket should be located near your Unit and be easily accessible.
• Keep your Unit away from moisture. Do not expose your Unit to rain or moisture. If water penetrates into your Unit, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.
Continuous use in this case may result in re or electric shock.

ENG - v
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not use your Unit if any abnormality occurs. If any smoke or odor becomes apparent, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer immediately. Do not try to
repair your Unit yourself.
• Avoid using dropped or damaged appliances. If your Unit is dropped and the housing is damaged, the internal components may function abnormally. Unplug the power
cord immediately and contact your dealer for repair. Continued use of your Unit may cause re or electric shock.
• Do not install your Unit in an area with heavy dust or high humidity. Operating your Unit in environments with heavy dust or high humidity may cause re or electric
shock.
• Ensure that the power cord and any other cables are unplugged before moving your Unit.
• When unplugging your Unit, hold the power plug, not the cord. Pulling on the power cord may damage the wires inside the cord and cause re or electric shock. When
your Unit will not be used for an extended period of time, unplug the power cord.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, do not touch the connector with wet hands.
• Insert the remote control batteries in accordance with instructions. Incorrect polarity may cause the battery to leak which can damage the remote control or injure the
operator.
• Read and follow all warnings printed on the Unit.
• WARNING: This equipment is not waterproof. To prevent a re or shock hazard, do not place any container lled with liquid near the equipment (such as a vase or
ower pot) or expose it to dripping, splashing, rain, or moisture.
• CAUTION: Danger of explosion or re if batteries are mistreated. Replace only with the same or specied type.
• Do not leave the batteries exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time with doors and windows closed. Do not disassemble the batteries or dispose of it in re.
• If the main wall plug or the appliance coupler is disconnected, the disconnected device will remain readily operable upon reconnection to an appropriate power source.
• No open ames, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the Unit.
• The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items,such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.
• The equipment shall be used at maximum 35 degree C ambient temperature.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not expose this Unit to rain or moisture.
