• Do not place this unit on top of a power amplifier or
other device that generates heat.
• If this unit is placed near a power amplifier or other
device with a large transformer, it could cause a hum. If
this occurs, increase the distance between this unit and
the other device.
• This unit could cause color irregularities on a TV screen
or noise from a radio if used nearby. If this occurs, use
this unit farther away.
• This unit might produce noise if a mobile phone or other
wireless device is used nearby to make calls or send
or receive signals. If this occurs, increase the distance
between this unit and those devices or turn them off.
• To enable good heat dissipation, do not place anything
on top of this unit.
• Do not place this unit on top of a power amplifier or
other device that generates heat.
Beware of condensation
If the unit is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used
after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of
condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the
internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible.
To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the unit sit for one or
two hours at the new room temperature before using.
Cleaning the unit
Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the unit clean. Do not clean the
unit with a chemically treated cloth or substances such as
thinner and alcohol because they might cause damage to
the surface of the unit.
