Precautions
Operate the unit only on the power sources specified in “Specifications.
Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). If it is
used in temperatures higher than this range, numbers may appear in the display
which have nothing to do with the frequency being received. If it is used in
temperatures lower than this range, the numbers displayed may change very
slowly. (These irregularities will disappear and there will be no damage to the
unit when the unit is used in the recommended temperature range.)
Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat source such as a radiator or
airduct, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical
vibration, or shock.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and have it
checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place
the unit on a surface (a rug, blanket, etc.) or near materials (a curtain) that
might block the ventilation holes.
Never touch the wire of the external antenna during a thunderstorm.
Furthermore, immediately disconnect the AC power cord from the radio.
Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep away personal credit cards
using magnetic coding or spring-wound watches from the unit to prevent
possible damage from the magnet.
To clean the casing, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution.
