PROTECTING YOURSELF AND THE S20
Never touch the AC plug with wet hands.
Always disconnect the S20 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 S20.
Apart from voiding the warranty, unauthorized engineers might touch live internal parts and receive a
serious electrical shock.
Do not put, or allow anyone to put any object, especially metal objects, into the S20.
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 S20, 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 S20 away from sources of
direct heat (stoves, radiators, etc.).
Avoid using aerosol insecticides, etc. near the S20. They may damage the surface, and may ignite.
Do not use denaturated alcohol, thinner or similar chemicals to clean the S20. They will damage the finish.
Modification of this equipment is dangerous, and can result in the functions of the S20 being impaired.
Never attempt to modify the equipment in any way.
Make sure that the S20 is always well-supported when in use (either in a specially-designed equipment
rack, or a firm level surface).
When installing the S20 in a 19" rack system, always allow lU 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 S20, select the setup location carefully, and make sure the
equipment is used properly. Avoid setting up the S20 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

IMPORTANT
This equipment is fitted with an approved converter plug.
To change the fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1) Remove the fuse cover and old fuse. 2) Fit anew fuse which should be a BS1362 5
Amp A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type. 3) Refit the fuse cover.
If the AC mains plug fitted to the lead supplied with this equipment is not suitable for your type of AC outlet
sockets, it should be changed to an AC mains lead, complete with moulded plug of the appropriate type.
If this is not possible, the plug should be cut off and a correct one fitted to suit the AC outlet. This should be fused
at 5 Amps.
If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.
PLEASE NOTE:
THE SEVERED PLUG MUST BE DESTROYED TO AVOID A POSSIBLE SHOCK HAZARD
SHOULD IT BE INSERTED INTO A 13 AMP SOCKET ELSEWHERE.
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE -NEUTRAL
BROWN-LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, please proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or
coloured RED.
DO NOT CONNECT ANY WIRE TO THE PIN MARKED E OR 1 OR COLOURED GREEN OR YELLOW 8
GREEN WHEN WIRING THE PLUG.
Ensure that all the terminals are securely tightened and no loose strands of wire exist.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain the cord grip is clamped over the outer sheath of the lead and not
simply over the wires.

CAUTION (Only for the product sold in Canada and U.S.A.)
To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other
outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
