 9.  Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades 

with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade

electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. 
10.  Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and 
the point where they exit from the apparatus. 
11.  Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. 
12.  Use with only the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the 
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/ apparatus combination to avoid injury from 
tip-over. 
13.  Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.  
14.  Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has 
been damaged in any way, such as the power-supply adaptor having been 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. 

WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or 
moisture.

The unit is of Class 1 construction and must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing 
connection. 
 
The unit must be installed in a manner that makes disconnection of the mains plug from the mains socket outlet 
(or appliance connector from the rear of the unit) possible. Where the mains plug is used as the disconnect 
device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. Only use the mains cord supplied with this unit. 
 
Please ensure there is ample ventilation. We recommend that you do not place the unit in an enclosed space; if 
you wish to place the unit on a shelf, use the top shelf to allow maximum ventilation. Do not put any objects on 
top of this unit. Do not situate it on a rug or other soft surface and do not obstruct any air inlets or outlet grilles. 
Do not cover the ventilation grilles with items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc. 
 
This unit must not be used near water or exposed to dripping or splashing water or other liquids. No objects filled 
with liquid, such as vases, shall be placed on the unit. 

The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the 
presence of un-insulated ‘dangerous voltage’ within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude 
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
