caution when moving the

cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.

Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord

remain readily operable.

18. When replacement parts are required, be sure the

service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorised
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or
other hazards.

19. Check that there are no cables under the carpet

that may be damaged by the spike feet. Do not
walk the product on the spike feet as this may
cause them to become detached from the cabinet
and cause damage. Take care not to impale
yourself with the spike feet.

20. For continued protection against fire hazard, use

fuses only of the correct type and rating. Mains
fuses are located inside the appliance as well as
on its back panel. Replacement of the internal
fuse should be entrusted to an authorised
operative. User-replaceable fuse types are shown
in the specification.

21. Isolation of the appliance from the power supply is

by means of removal of the power cord from the
rear of the appliance or removal of the power cord
from the wall power outlet. Either the wall outlet or
the rear of the appliance must remain freely
accessible at all times while the apparatus is in use.

22. This product should be operated only from the

type of power source indicated by the marking
adjacent to the power cord entry. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power
company.

23. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or

integral convenience receptacles, as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

cathode ray tube televisions or computer
monitors, audio and video tapes and swipe cards)
within 0.5m (2 feet) of the appliance. The
appliance may cause distortion of cathode ray
tube images beyond this distance. LCD and
Plasma screens are not affected.

unstable stand, tripod, bracket or table. The
product may fall causing serious injury and serious
damage. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
