PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE
PROCEEDING
Especially in the case of children, a guardian should provide
guidance on how to properly use and handle the product before
actual use.
Please keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future
reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to
avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death
from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or
other hazards. These precautions include, but are not
limited to, the following:
Power supply
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters
or radiators. Also, do not excessively bend or otherwise
damage the cord, or place heavy objects on it.
• Do not touch the product or the power plug during an
electrical storm.
• Use only the correct voltage specified for the product. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the product.
• Use only the supplied or the specified AC adaptor (page 76)/
power cord. Do not use the supplied AC adaptor/power cord
for other products.
• Check the power plug periodically and remove any dirt or
dust which may have accumulated on it.
• Insert the power plug firmly all the way into the AC outlet.
Using the product when it is not plugged in sufficiently can
cause dust to accumulate on the plug, possibly resulting in fire
or skin burns.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet
you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or
malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch
and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the
power switch is turned off, as long as the power cord is not
unplugged from the wall AC outlet, the product will not be
disconnected from the power source.
• Do not connect the product to an electrical outlet using a
multi-plug outlet extender. Doing so can result in lower
sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.
• When disconnecting the power plug, always hold the plug
itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it and
cause electric shocks or a fire.
• If not using the product for long periods of time, be sure to
pull the power plug from the AC outlet.
