14. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the apparatus through
openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or
short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases
shall be placed on the apparatus.
Don't put candles or other burning objects on top of this
unit.

Speaker Precautions
Placement
0 The speaker cabinets are sensitive to extreme
temperatures and humidity, do not put them in locations
subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as
near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
0 Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers.
If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may
be damaged.
0 Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces
that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or
unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause
damage, will affect the sound quality.
0 If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD
player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To
prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD
player or DVD player otherwise lower the unit's output
level.
Using Close to a TV or Computer
TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive
devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or
picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed
nearby. To prevent this, some speakers feature internal
magnetic shielding.
Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or
demagnetizing tool that's too close to your TV or monitor.
Check the speaker specification to see if your speakers are
magnetic shielded or not.
For non-magnetic shielded speakers:
Try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. If
discoloration should occur, turn off your TV or monitor, wait
15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This
normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes
the magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration
effects.
