Listening Caution
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit youve just purchased is
only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now its time to consider how you
can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This
manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Associations Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and
clear without annoying blaring or distortionand, most importantly, without
affecting your sensitive hearing.
We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing comfort level adapts to
higher volumes of sound. So what sounds normal can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly,
and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
Leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss
in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
To prevent injury, the unit must be securely attached to the wall in
accordance with the installation instructions.
Do not install the unit where it cannot support the load.
If the mounting parts are not strong enough, this may cause the unit to
fall, resulting in injury.
Do not use installation methods other than instructed.
This may cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Do not install the unit at locations other than vertical walls.
This may cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Take the safety factor for mounting strength into account (approx.
10 times the product weight).
Insufficient strength will cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
The wall on which the unit is to be attached to should be capable of
supporting 20 kg (44 lbs) per screw.
Insufficient strength of the walls will cause the unit to fall in the long
run.

respectively. Keep space between the wall and rear of the unit clear
of obstructions.
Blocking the exhaust holes on the main unit may result in fire.
Use the designated components for installation.
Otherwise, the main unit may fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Prevent the mounting screws or power cord from coming into
contact with metal parts inside the wall during installation.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock.
When removing the main unit, remove the wall mounting screws as
well.
Otherwise the wall mounting screws may hit a person and lead to
injury.
