Location
Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not
be exposed to high temperatures or humidity.
÷ Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to
direct rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive
heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal
components. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty
environment may also result in a malfunction or accident.
(Avoid installation near cookers etc., where the unit may be
exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.)
÷ When the unit is used inside a carrying case or DJ booth,
separate it from the walls or other equipment to improve
heat radiation.
CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING
Cleaning the Unit
÷ Use a polishing cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.
÷ When the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth
dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times
with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry
cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners.
÷ Never use thinners, benzene, insecticide sprays or other
chemicals on or near this unit, since these will corrode the
surfaces.

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit
youve just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now its time to consider how
you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Associations Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of
your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that
lets the sound come through loud and clear without
annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly,
without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
comfort level adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds normal can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound
level:
Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent
hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will
provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer
and the Electronic Industries Associations
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid
prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of
sound levels is included for your protection.
