MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF BEFORE MAKING OR REMOVING CONNECTIONS Always turn the power OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent damage to the unit itself as well as other connected equipment. 8. ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE Since the GEP50 contains digital circuitry, it may cause interference and noise if placed too close to TV sets, radios or similar equipment.
