Warnings
• Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects
inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become wet. Fire or electrical shock may result.
• Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this Owner’s Manual or as
marked on the unit. Failure to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical
shock hazard.
• Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire
and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be careful not to place heavy objects on a power cord covered
by a carpet.
• If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke, odor, or noise, or if a foreign object or liquid gets inside
the unit, turn it off immediately. Remove the power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for
repair. Using the unit in this condition is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Should this unit be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn the power switch off, remove the power
plug from the AC outlet, and contact your dealer. If you continue using the unit without heeding this
instruction, fire or electrical shock may result.
• If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement. Using
the unit with a damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not remove the unit’s cover. You could receive an electrical shock. If you think internal inspection,
maintenance, or repair is necessary, contact your dealer.
• Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• If lightning begins to occur, turn off the power switch of the unit as soon as possible, and unplug the
power cable plug from the electrical outlet.
• If there is a possibility of lightning, do not touch the power cable plug if it is still connected. Doing so
may be an electrical shock hazard.
Cautions
• When rack-mounting the unit, allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation. This
should be: 10 cm at the sides, 15 cm behind, and 15 cm above.
For normal ventilation during use, remove the rear of the rack or open a ventilation hole.
If the airflow is not adequate, the unit will heat up inside and may cause a fire.
• Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it from an AC outlet. Never pull the cord. A damaged
power cord is a potential fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a potential electrical shock hazard.
Operating Notes
• Using a mobile telephone near this unit may induce noise. If noise occurs, use the telephone away from
the unit.
• XLR-type connectors are wired as follows:
pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).
• The performance of components with moving contacts, such switches, rotary controls, faders, and
connectors, deteriorates over time. The rate of deterioration depends on the operating environment and
is unavoidable. Consult your dealer about replacing defective components.
