RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN Installation 1 Eau et humidité -- Ne pas utiliser l'ampli-tuner près d'une baignoire, d'un lavabo, d'une piscine ou de tout autre endroit similaire. 2 Chaleur -- Ne pas utiliser l'ampli-tuner près d'une source de chaleur, comme une sortie d'air chaud, un chauffage, ou autre appareil produisant de la chaleur. Il ne doit pas non plus être exposé à des températures inférieures à 5°C (41°F) ou supérieures à 35°C (95°F). 3 Installation -- Installez l'ampli-tuner sur une surface plane, de niveau. 4 Ventilation -- Laissez un espace suffisant tout autour de l'ampli-tuner pour garantir une bonne ventilation, soit environ 10 cm (4 po.) à l'arrière et au-dessus de l'ampli-tuner et 5 cm (2 po.) sur les deux côtés. - Ne pas poser l'ampli-tuner sur un lit, une couverture ou toute autre surface similaire qui pourrait bloquer les orifices de ventilation. - Ne pas installer l'ampli-tuner dans une étagère, un placard ou un meuble où la ventilation est insuffisante. 5 Objets et liquide -- Veillez à ce qu'aucun objet ni liquide ne pénètre dans les orifices de ventilation de l'ampli-tuner. 6 Chariots et supports -- Quand vous installez l'ampli-tuner sur un suppor t ou un chariot, déplacez-les lentement. A cause d'arrêts subits, de mouvements brusques et de surfaces inégales, l'ampli-tuner ou le chariot peuvent être renversés. 7 Fixation au mur ou au plafond -- L'ampli-tuner ne doit pas être installé au mur ou au plafond. "CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL." Signification des symboles graphiques: L'éclair portant une flèche, situé dans un triangle équilatéral, sert à prévenir l'utilisateur de la présence d'une "tension dangereuse" non isolée à l'intérieur de l'appareil, assez élevée pour constituer un risque d'électrocution. Le point d'exclamation situé dans un triangle équilatéral, sert à prévenir l'utilisateur de la présence d'instructions importantes concernant l'utilisation et l'entretien (ou la réparation) de l'appareil dans le manuel qui accompagne ce dernier. Electricité 1 Sources d'alimentation -- Raccordez l'ampli-tuner seulement à la source d'alimentation spécifiée dans le mode d'emploi et indiquée sur l'ampli-tuner proprement dit. 2 Polarisation -- Par mesure de sécurité, certains appareils sont équipés d'une fiche secteur polarisée qui ne rentre dans la prise murale que dans un seul sens. S'il n'est pas possible d'insérer la fiche dans la prise, essayez dans l'autre sens. S'il n'est toujours pas possible d'insérer la fiche dans la prise, faites appel à un électricien pour remplacer la prise qui est probablement trop vieille. Ne pas modifier la fiche polarisée, elle ne remplirait plus son but. 3 Cordon d'alimentation secteur - Quand vous débranchez le cordon d'alimentation secteur, tirez sur la fiche et non pas sur le cordon. - Ne jamais toucher la fiche secteur avec des mains humides afin d'éviter les risques d'incendie ou d'électrocution. - Les cordons d'alimentation doivent être fixés correctement pour éviter qu'ils ne soient pliés, coincés ou piétinés. Faites particulièrement attention au cordon reliant l'ampli-tuner à la prise secteur. - Evitez de surcharger les prises murales (secteur) et les prolongateurs au-delà de leur capacité, car vous risquez sinon de provoquer un incendie ou une décharge électrique. 4 Cordon de prolongation -- Afin d'éviter tout risque d'électrocution, ne pas utiliser de fiche secteur polarisée avec un cordon de prolongation, douille ou autre type de prise à moins que la fiche polarisée ne soit complètement insérée sans laisser les lames à découvert. Relevé du propriétaire Pour plus de commodité, noter le numéro de modèle et le numéro de série (cas numéros se trouvent au dos de l'appareil) dans les cases ci-dessous. Prière de mentionner ces numéros quand on contacte un distributeur Aiwa en cas de difficulté. N° de modèle AV-S17 N° de série (N° de lot) 1 FRANÇAIS 5 Quand l'ampli-tuner n'est pas utilisé -- Débranchez l'amplituner de la prise murale si vous prévoyez de ne pas l'utiliser pendant plusieurs mois. Quand le cordon est branché, une petite quantité d'électricité s'écoule vers même s'il est hors tension.
