DON'T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about
it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way--switch off, withdraw
the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON'T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON'T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is
specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a
standby mode.
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your
family know how to do this.
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm of handicapped

physical shocks into consideration when selecting
the installation place, and secure the unit
thoroughly.
· This unit is magnetically shielded to avoid color distortions on
TVs. However, if not installed properly, it may cause color
distortions. So, pay attention to the following when installing
the unit.
­ When placing this unit near a TV set, turn off the TV's main
