SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 
 

Please always follow these instructions to help ensure against injury to yourself 

 and/or damage to the system 

 

 

1.  Read all safety and operating instructions 

before you operate the apparatus. 

 

2.  Retain all safety and operating instructions 

for future reference. 

 

3.  Heed all warnings on the apparatus and in 

the safety and operating instructions and 
follow all installation and use instructions. 

 

4.  Follow all installation, operating and use 

instructions. 

 

5.  Unplug the apparatus from the AC power 

outlet before cleaning. Use only a damp 
cloth for cleaning the exterior of the 
apparatus. 

 

6.  Do not use accessories or attachments not 

recommended by the manufacturer, as they 
may cause hazards and void the warranty. 

 

7.  Do not operate this apparatus in high 

humidity areas or expose it to water or 
moisture. 

 

8.  Do not place the apparatus on an unstable 

cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table. The 
apparatus may fall, causing serious 
personal injury and damage to the 
apparatus. 

 

9.  Do not block or cover any openings in the 

apparatus. These are provided for 
ventilation and protection from overheating. 
Never place the apparatus near any heat 
sources such as radiators, heat registers, 
stoves, or other apparatus (including 
amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not place 
the apparatus in an enclosure such as a 
cabinet without proper ventilation.  

 

10.  Operate the apparatus using only the type 

of power source indicated on the marking 
label. Unplug the apparatus‟ power cord by 
gripping the power plug, not the cord. 

 

11.  Insert the plug properly. Do not defeat the 

safety purpose of the polarized or 
grounding-type plug. An American 
polarized AC line plug has two blades with 
one wider than the other. This plug will fit 
only one way into the power outlet. This is a 
safety feature. If you are unable to insert 
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing 
the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact 
an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. 
A grounding type plug has two blades and 
a third grounding prong. The wide blade or 
the third prong are provided for your safety. 
If the provided plug does not fit into your 
outlet, consult an electrician to replace the 
obsolete outlet. 

 

12.  Route power supply cords so that they are 

not likely to be walked on or pinched by 
items placed upon or against them. Pay 
particular attention to cords at plugs, 
convenience receptacles, and the point 
where they exit from the apparatus. 

 

13.  Do not overload wall outlets or extension 

cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or 
electrical shock. 

 

14.  Unplug this apparatus during lightning 

storms or when unused for long periods of 
time. 

 

15.  Never insert objects of any kind into the 

apparatus through openings, as the objects 
may touch Dangerous voltage points or 
short out parts. This could cause fire or 
electrical shock. 

 

16.  Refer all servicing to qualified service 

personnel. Servicing is required when the 
apparatus has been damaged in any way, 
such as when the power-supply cord or 
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or 
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the 
apparatus has been exposed to rain or 
moisture, does not operate normally, or has 
been dropped.
