Important Safety Instructions
iii
CAUTION—To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26
AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
•
Locate the receiver in an open, well-ventilated area. Do not place
the receiver in an enclosure (such as a cabinet) without proper
ventilation.
•
Do not impede ventilation by covering the ventilation slots (such
as with magazines, curtains, tablecloth, etc.), or the receiver will
overheat.
•
Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic
devices as this can cause heat build-up and vibration.
•
Do not install the receiver in any area where the temperature can
be less than 40°F or more than 113°F, and do not cover it.
•
Connect the power plug to an outlet having a safety ground
connection. The power plug must be readily accessible so that
the equipment can be easily disconnected from the AC power.
•
Operate the receiver using only the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. Unplug the receiver power cord
by gripping the power plug, not the cord.
•
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords — this can result
in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
•
Never insert objects of any kind through openings into the
receiver, as the objects may touch dangerous voltage points or
short out parts. This could cause fire or electrical shock.
•
Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself, as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage, and will
void the Limited Warranty. Refer all servicing to authorized
service personnel.
•
Unplug the receiver from the AC power outlet before cleaning.
The receiver is still connected to the AC power whenever it is
plugged in to a live power outlet, even if the receiver is “turned
off” using the remote control or front panel button.
