ALL MODELS
1. DO NOT connect to power if there are any signs of damage to any part
of the exterior.
2. Depending on the level of the input signal, the voltage at the outputs can
be high enough to cause electric shock. Turn all components OFF before
connecting the amplifier.
3. Allow adequate ventilation to ensure reliable operation and prevent
overheating. The amount of space required above the unit for radiation
depends on ambient air temperature and circulation. Installation inside
a cabinet with a front that can be closed is NOT recommended unless
a fan is installed to adequately draw air away from the top of the unit.
4. Failing to comply with any safety instruction, precaution or warning in this
Operating Manual is in direct violation of the standards of design, manu-
facture and intended use of this product. Paradigm and any related party
assume no liability for the user’s failure to comply with these requirements.
