Approx. 5 mm
•Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical

batteries or disconnect the AC power adaptor, and have the
unit checked by qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
•Keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring-
wound watches etc. away from the unit to prevent possible
damage from the magnet used for the speaker.
•When you do not use the unit for long, remove the batteries to
avoid damage caused by battery leakage and subsequent
corrosion.
