Precautions Notes on use of the S-AIR product  As the S-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves, sound may skip if radio waves are obstructed. This is a characteristic of radio waves and is not a malfunction of the system.  As the S-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves, equipment that generates electromagnetic energy, such as a microwave oven, may interfere with sound transmission of the system.  As the S-AIR product uses the radio waves that share the same frequency as other wireless systems, such as wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices, interference or poor transmission may result. In this case, take the following steps: Do not install S-AIR products near other wireless systems. Do not use S-AIR products and other wireless systems at the same time.  The transmission distance differs depending on the usage environment. Find a location where transmission between the unit and subwoofer is most effective, and install the unit and subwoofer there. On safety  Completely disconnect the power cord from the wall socket if the main unit and subwoofer are not going to be used for an extended period of time. When unplugging them, always grip the plug. Never pull the cord itself.  Should any solid object or liquid get into the main unit or a subwoofer, unplug the unit in question, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it again.  The power cord should only be changed by a qualified service facility. On placement  Do not place the unit and subwoofer in an inclined position or in locations that are extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking adequate ventilation. Also, do not place in a location subject to vibration, direct sunlight or bright light.  Be careful when placing the unit and the subwoofer on surfaces that have been specially treated (for example, with wax, oil, polish), as staining or discoloration of the surface may result. On heat buildup  Heat buildup of the unit and subwoofer during operation is normal and no cause for alarm. Cleaning the cabinet Clean the cabinet with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, or alcohol.
