4. Do not allow this unit to be exposed to moisture (e.g. dripping or
splashing). Do not leave your radio where excessive heat could
cause damage such as in a parked car where the heat from the sun
can build up even though the outside temperature may not seem too
high.
Note: The unit remains connected to the mains even when it
is switched off. The unit is only isolated from the mains if the
mains plug is removed from the wall socket.
