B Placement precautions
o
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or close to any 
source of heat, such as a radiator, heater, open fireplace 
or amplifier. Also avoid locations that are subject to vibra-
tions or exposed to excessive dust, cold or moisture.
o
Place the unit in a stable location near the audio sys-
tem that you will use with it.
o
As the unit could become warm during operation, 
always leave sufficient space around it for ventilation. 
When installing this unit, leave a little space (at least 
3 cm or 1.2") between it and walls and other devices 
in order to allow good heat dissipation. When placing 
it in a rack, for example, leave at least 5 cm (2") open 
above it and 10 cm (4") open behind it. Failure to pro-
vide these gaps could cause heat to build up inside and 
result in fire.
o
You may stack this unit with a PD-501HR or other 501 
series units. However, if heat should cause the protec-
tion circuit to be activated and sound output stops 
suddenly, place this unit on top and with sufficient dis-
tance between it and walls and other devices in order 
to improve heat dissipation.
Before use
o
Do not place CDs, CD-Rs, cassette tapes, other audio 
equipment or other items that are susceptible to heat 
on top of the unit. Doing so could damage these items.
o
Do not put cloth on top of the unit or place the unit on 
top of bedding or thick carpets. Doing so could cause 
the unit to overheat and damage it.
o
Do not move the unit during use.
o
The voltage supplied to the unit should match the volt-
age printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt 
regarding this matter, consult an electrician.
o
Do not open the body of the unit as this might result 
in damage to the circuitry or cause electric shock. If a 
foreign object should get into the unit, contact your 
dealer or TEAC customer support.
o
When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, 
always pull directly on the plug; never yank on the 
cord.
o
Depending on the electromagnetic waves of television 
broadcasts, interference might appear on television 
screens when this unit is on. This does not mean that 
this unit or the TV is malfunctioning. If this occurs, turn 
this unit off.
