Take care not to use this unit in a place where it will not receive sufficient ventilation, and not to permit the ventilation holes to be covered by curtains, or any similar materials. 2. Place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat from heating equipment. 3. A place where humidity, vibration and dust are minimized. If operation seems abnormal Immediately turn off the power, disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical outlet, and contact the store where it was purchased. Discontinue using the unit at once. Failure to do so may result in additional damage or some other unexpected damage or accident. · Because the power source is located inside the unit, it is normal for the cabinet to become warm. Power source 1. Be sure the line voltage selector is in accordance with local voltage in your area before connecting the plug to the socket. 2. DC power cannot be used. A word about the power cord If the power cord is scarred, is partially cut or bronken, or has a bad contact, it may cause a fire or serious electrical shock if used. NEVER use a damaged power cord for any appliance. Moreover, the power cord should never be forcibly bent. Handling the power cord 1. Never touch the power cord, or its plug, with wet hands. Don't touch the inside parts of this unit. Some places inside this unit have high voltage potential. Never try to remove the top or back panels of this unit, or to touch inside parts by hand or with tools. Contact someone who is qualified in order to inspect the inside, or to replace a fuse, if such becomes necessary. Never attempt to do these things yourself. 2. Don't pull the power cord. Metal items inside the unit may result in electric shock or damage. Do not permit metal articles to get inside the unit. Be especially careful with regard to this point if children are near this unit. They should be warned never to try to put anything inside. If, nevertheless, some such article does get inside, disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical outlet, and contact the store where the unit was purchased. Maintenance The following suggestions will assist you in keeping the unit in top condition. · Be sure to switch the instrument off after use, and do not switch the unit on and off in quick succession, as this places an undue load on the electronic components. · To keep the luster of the surface and buttons, simply use a clean, damp cloth; polish with a soft, dry cloth. Polish may be used but do not use thinners or petro-chemical-based polishes. · A wax-based polish may be used on the cabinet, although you will find that rubbing with a soft cloth will suffice. If water gets into the unit Disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical outlet, and contact the store where it was purchased. As a precaution, it is suggested that flower vases and other containers which hold liquids not be placed on the top of this unit. · This product may receive radio interference caused by mobile telephones during use.
