If you will not be using the rem ote control for a long tim e,  
rem ove the batteries to prevent corrosion.  
Although your system is very hard-wearing, it should not be  
used in an excessively dusty environm ent or subjected to  
shocks or extrem e heat (close to heating appliances or in  
direct sunlight, etc.).  
Remove the batteries from the  
remote control, if not used for any  
extended period.  
Leaking batteries can cause serious  
damage to the remote control.  
When using headphones, take care  
not to listen at excessive volumes.  
Extended use of headphones at  
high volumes will lead to hearing  
damage.  
If the unit em its an unpleasant odor when in use, unplug it  
from the m ain supply and contact the after-sales service.  
Do not place heavy items on the  
main lead. Main cable damage can  
lead to damage of the equipment (fire  
hazard) and can cause electric  
shock.  
Do not remove any equipment panels.  
The inside of the unit  
contains live components, which  
cause electric shock.
