WARNING: WHEN USING ELECTRIC PRODUCTS, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS
BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
WARNING
The MFC42 is designed to be used in a standard household environment.
Power requirements for electrical equipment differ from area to area. The operating voltage of this
MFC42 is preset at the factory according to its intended destination. However, before connecting,
check to see that the VOLTAGE SELECTOR on the rear panel is set to the correct voltage for your
area. If not, please set it correctly before plugging in the power cord. If in doubt, consult a qualified
electrician or AKAI professional dealer.
120 VAC
@ 60 Hz for USA and Canada
230 VAC
@ 50 Hz for Europe
If the VOLTAGE SELECTOR is not set correctly for your area:
Confirm that the power cord is disconnected.
Remove the VOLTAGE SELECTOR with a screw driver and
replace it so that the correct voltage for your area is lined with
the marker. Also, change the fuse according to the chart
indicated on the rear panel as necessary.
PROTECTING YOURSELF AND THE MFC42
·
Never touch the AC plug with wet hands.
·
Always disconnect the MFC42 from the power supply
by pulling on the plug, not the cord.
·
Allow only an AKAI professional dealer or qualified professional engineer to repair or reassemble
the MFC42. Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch live internal
parts and receive a serious electrical shock. There are no serviceable parts inside.
·
Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the MFC42.
·
Use only a household AC power supply. Never use a DC power supply.
·
If water or any other liquid is spilled into or onto the MFC42, disconnect the power, and call your
dealer.
·
Make sure that the unit is well-ventilated, and away from direct sunlight.
·
To avoid damage to internal circuitry, as well as the external finish, keep the MFC42 away from
sources of direct heat (stoves, radiators, etc.).
·
Avoid using aerosol insecticides, etc. near the MFC42. They may damage the surface, and
may ignite.
·
Do not use denatured alcohol, thinner or similar chemicals to clean the MFC42. They will damage
the finish.
·
Modification of this equipment is dangerous, and can result in the functions of the MFC42 being
impaired. Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way.
·
Make sure that the MFC42 is always well-supported when in use (either in a specially-designed
equipment rack, or on a firm level surface).
·
When installing the MFC42 in a 19" rack system, always allow 1U of ventilated free space
above it to allow for cooling. Make sure that the back of the rack is unobstructed to allow a clear
airflow.
·
In order to assure optimum performance of your MFC42, select the setup location carefully,
and make sure the equipment is used properly. Avoid setting up the MFC42 in the following
locations:
1. In a humid or dusty environment
2. In a room with poor ventilation
3. On a surface which is not horizontal
4. Inside a vehicle such as a car, where it will be subject to vibration
5. In an extremely hot or cold environment
