The carton and shipping materials used
to protect your new receiver during
shipment were specially designed to
cushion it from shock and vibration. We
suggest that you save the carton and
packing materials for use in shipping if
you move, or should the unit ever need
repair.
to protect your new receiver during
shipment were specially designed to
cushion it from shock and vibration. We
suggest that you save the carton and
packing materials for use in shipping if
you move, or should the unit ever need
repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in
storage, you may wish to flatten it. This
is done by carefully slitting the tape
seams on the bottom and collapsing the
carton down to a more two-dimensional
appearance. Other cardboard inserts may
be stored in the same manner. Packing
materials that cannot be collapsed
should be saved along with the carton in
a plastic bag.
