GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below, may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HEED ALL WARNINGS
FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

 Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
 Do not operate products in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Products create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

 A battery operated product with integral batteries or
a separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified charger for the battery. A charger that
may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk
of fire when used with another battery.
 Use battery operated product only with specifically
designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire.
 Use battery only with charger listed.

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 for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
 Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience recepta-
cles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.

PERSONAL SAFETY

 Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked
or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying
products with your finger on the switch or inserting the bat-
tery pack into a product with the switch on invites accidents.
 Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better
control of the product in unexpected situations.
 Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
product in unexpected situations.
PRODUCT USE AND CARE
 Do not use product if switch does not turn it on or
off. A product that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
 Disconnect battery pack from product or place the
switch in the locked or off position before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
the product. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the product accidentally.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make
a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting
the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns,
or a fire.
 Keep the radio and its handle dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
products, or any strong solvents to clean the radio. Fol-
lowing this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and
deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
 Do not use this apparatus near water.
 Clean only with dry cloth.
 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in ac-
cordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
SERVICE
 Product service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
