Important Safety
Instructions
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
Caution:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
remove the back panel. No user-
serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel.
Explanation of Graphical
Symbols:
The lightning flash within an
equilateral triangle is intended
to alert you to the presence of
uninsulated "dangerous
voltage" within the product's enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
an electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within
an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert you to the
presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying
the appliance.
1 Read Instructions – All the safety and
operating instructions should be read
before the appliance is operated.
2 Retain Instructions – The safety and
operating instructions should be
retained for future reference.
3 Heed Warnings – All warnings on the
appliance and in the operating
instructions should be adhered to.
4 Follow Instructions – All operating and
use instructions should be followed.
5 Cleaning – Unplug the product from
the wall outlet before cleaning. Refer to
the cleaning instructions in the section
of the manual titled "Aftercare".
6 Attachments – Do not use attachments
not recommended by the product
manufacturer, as they may cause
hazards.
7 Water and Moisture – Do not use this
product near water – for example, near
a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or
near a swimming pool and the like.
8 Accessories – Do not place this
product on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket or table. The product
may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult, and serious damage to
the product. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket or table
recommended by the manufacturer or
sold with the product. Any mounting of
the product should follow the
manufacturerís instructions and should
use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
9 A product and cart combination should
be moved with care. Quick stops,
excessive force and uneven surfaces
may cause the product and cart
combination to overturn.
10 Ventilation – Openings in the rear
control panel are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the product and to
prevent it from overheating, and these
openings must not be blocked or
covered. The panel itself forms part of
the cooling mechanism and must not
be obscured by placing the product on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. The product should not be
placed in a built-in installation, such as
a rack, bookcase or cabinet unless
proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions have been
adhered to.
11 Power Sources – This product should
be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking
label situated on the rear panel above
the power input socket. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your product
dealer or local power company.
12 Grounding or Polarisation – The
appliance is not required to be
grounded. Versions of the product
marked for use with 120V power
supplies are equipped with a power
cord fitted with a polarised alternating
line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit
onto the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarised plug. When
using an extension power-supply cord
or a power-supply cord other than that
supplied with the appliance, it should
be fitted with the appropriate moulded-
on plugs and carry safety approval
appropriate to the country of use.
13 Power Cord Protection – Power-supply
cords should be routed so that they
are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed on or against
them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles and the point where they
exit from the appliance.
