Usage Precautions
SInterference with other electrical
equipment
In consideration of safety, the Qhas
been designed to minimize its emission of
electromagnetic waves and to suppress inter-
ference from external electromagnetic waves.
However, equipment that is very susceptible
to interference or that emits powerful electro-
magnetic waves could result in interference
if placed nearby. If this occurs, place the
Qand the other device farther apart.
With any type of electronic device that
uses digital control, including the Q,
electromagnetic interference could cause
malfunction, corrupt or destroy data and re-
sult in other unexpected trouble. Always use
caution.
SCleaning
Use a soft cloth to clean the exterior of the
unit if it becomes dirty. If necessary, use a
damp cloth that has been wrung out well to
wipe it.
Never use abrasive cleansers, wax or solvents
such as alcohol, benzene or paint thinner.
SBreakdown and malfunction
If the unit becomes broken or malfunctions,
immediately disconnect the AC adapter, turn
the power off and disconnect other cables.
Contact the store where you bought the unit
or ZOOM customer service with the follow-
ing information: product model, serial number
and specific symptoms of breakdown or mal-
function, along with your name, address and
telephone number.
