mains voltage can be dangerous to the user if not
handled properly. Leave maintenance work to
qualified professionals. The product is only permit-
ted for connection to AC 230Volt/50Hz, for eart-
hed sockets and use in enclosed areas. The pro-
duct may not be altered or modified! After a fault,
leave the appliance's fuse to be replaced only by
a professional with one of the same kind.
Power cable/Connection

you want to disconnect the appliance from the
mains power. Make sure when setting up the
appliance that the power cable is not squashed,
severely bent or damaged by sharp edges. Do not
touch the power lead with wet or damp hands.
Use the power cable supplied or another one from
Vincent.
Moisture/Heat/Vibration
Contact of electrically operated equipment with
liquids, moisture, rain or water vapour is dange-

SECURITY PRECAUTIONS
observed in order to prevent any hazard:
CAUTION! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
There are no parts in the appliance that require maintenance by the user.
nect or remove other components or loudspeakers,
disconnect or connect it to the mains power, leave
it unused for a longer period or want to clean its
outside. On all amplifiers and receivers, wait
approx. 1 minute after this before disconnecting or
reconnecting the cable.
Heat build-up
All amplifiers generate heat as part of their
design. Make sure that a gap of 5 cm remains
around the appliance and that the surrounding air
can circulate (do not install in enclosed cupbo-
ards). Vents must not be covered up.
Volume
The maximum tolerable volume is always reached
well below the maximum possible setting on the
amplifier. Be careful with the volume setting, there-
fore, in order to prevent damage to hearing. So that
you do not expose yourself to high volumes uninten-
tionally, always set to a low level before changing
the input channel.
Cleaning
Pull out the plug before cleaning the outside of the
product. Whenever possible, use a soft, lint-free
cloth that has been dampened. Do not use abrasi-
ves, solvents, thinners, flammable chemicals, polis-
hes and other cleaning products that leave marks.
