off the power switch on the unit.
0 The RMT-BO and HMO-80 can
be powered only through the
power supply connectors on the
rear panel of the RMA-80. Insert
the 4-pin plugs extending from the
rear panel of the RMT80 and
RMD-BO all the way into the power
supply connectors of the EMA-80,
thus insuring a perfect connection.
Never attempt to insert the 4-pin
plugs into a wall outlet or other
power source that may damage the
units. Also, do not attempt to
insert any other plug into the
power supply connector of
EMA-80.
2. Installation
The unit must be placed in a level,
flat and well-ventilated location
free from humidity, vibrations,
dust, and high temperatures and
not exposed to direct sunlight. Im-
proper placement conditions may
have undesirable elfects to the
units.
3. Do not open the cabinet
To avoid possible electric shock or
damage to the component, never
open the cabinet. If some object
falls inside the cabinet by mistake,
turn off the power, disconnect the
wall plug, and consult a qualified
electrician or your dealer.
4. Turn the volume control to
minimum
An excess of current in the lower
frequency range may cause damage
to the speakers when lowering the
tonearm of your turntable onto a
record. Set the volume control of
RMA-SO to minimum before lower»
ing the stylus onto a record. Always
keep the volume at minimum when-
ever the power switch is turned on.
5. When moving the components
When transporting the units, re-
move the AC plug from the wall
outlet and disconnect all cords on
the rear panel to prevent wire
breakage and short circuit.

matter enters
