VENTILATION The holes on the side of the receiver are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the receiver, and to protect it from overheating, these ventilation holes must never be blocked or covered. Unless proper ventilation is provided, the receiver may gather dust and get dirty. For proper ventilation, observe the following: s Never block the ventilation holes by placing the receiver on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. s Never place the receiver in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is provided. Objects and ventilation holes Never push objects of any kind into the receiver through the ventilation holes as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or an electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the receiver. Do not place any objects on the receiver. INSTALLATION s The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible power outlet. s Do not install the receiver in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or greasy vapor. s Avoid operating the receiver at temperature below 41°F (5°C). s When mounted to the back of TV, do not use the receiver as a handle to pick up the TV set. s Make sure that the cord and connected cables are placed so that tripping or stumbling may be avoided. SERVICING Damage requiring service If the surface of the receiver cracks, do not touch the receiver until you unplug the AC power cord. Otherwise electric shock may result. Servicing Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself since opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Replacement parts When replacement parts are required, be sure to have the service technician certify in writing that he/she has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in a fire, an electric shock or other hazards. Safety check Upon completion of any service or repairs to the receiver, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the receiver is in safe operating condition, and to so certify. Should the receiver not be repairable, ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the receiver. 5
