When used in the directed manner, this unit has been designed and manufactured to ensure your personal  
safety. However, improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards. Please read all  
safety and operating instructions carefully before installation and use, and keep these instructions handy  
for future reference. Take special note of all warnings listed in these instructions and on the unit.  
1. Water and Moisture – The unit should not be used near water. For example: near a bathtub, washbowl,  
kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.  
2. Ventilation – The unit should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper  
ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block  
ventilation openings. Also, it should not be placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet,  
which may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.  
3. Heat – The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or  
other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
4. Power Sources – The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the  
operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.  
5. Power-Cable Protection – Power supply cables should be routed so that they are not likely to be  
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. It is always best to have a clear area from  
where the cable exits the unit to where it is plugged into an AC socket.  
6. Cleaning – The unit should be cleaned only as recommended. See the Maintenance section of this  
manual for cleaning instructions.  
7. Objects and Liquid Entry – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled  
into any openings or vents located on the product.  
8. Attachments – Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer.  
9. Lightning and Power Surge Protection – Unplug the unit from the wall socket and disconnect the  
antenna or cable system during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long  
periods of time. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.  
10. Overloading – Do not overload wall sockets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as  
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
11. Damage Requiring Service – The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:  
A. the power supply cable or plug has been damaged.  
B. objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled into the enclosure.  
C. the unit has been exposed to rain.  
D. the unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.  
E. the unit exhibits a marked change in performance or does not operate normally.  
12. Periods of Non use – If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period of time, such as a month or  
longer, the power cable should be unplugged from the unit to prevent damage or corrosion.  
13. Servicing – The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond those methods described in the  
user’s operating instructions. Service methods not covered in the operating instructions should be  
referred to qualified service personnel.  
14. Magnetic Interference: This product’s speakers contain powerful magnets which could cause  
interference or damage to sensitive equipment such as hard drives, CRT televisions and monitors, as well  
as medical, scientific, and navigational devices. Keep this unit away from these products at all times.
