CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No user serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated 'dangerous voltage' within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
CAUTION: In Canada and the USA, to prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot in the socket
and insert the plug fully into the socket.
5. Ventilation
Do not place the equipment on a bed, sofa, rug or
similar soft surface, or in an enclosed bookcase or
cabinet, since ventilation may be impeded.
Keep a minimum of 5cm (2 inches) clear around the
apparatus to allow sufficient passage of air.
6. Heat
Locate the equipment away from naked flames or
heat-producing appliances such as radiators, stoves or
other appliances that produce heat.
7. Climate
The equipment has been designed for use in
moderate climates and in domestic situations. Unplug
this equipment during lightning storms to prevent
possible damage from a strike or mains surge.
8. Cleaning
Unplug the unit from the mains supply before
cleaning.
The case should normally only require a wipe with a
soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use chemical solvents for
cleaning.
We do not advise the use of furniture cleaning sprays
or polishes as they can cause permanent white marks.
9. Grounding
Ensure that the unit is grounded ('earthed') properly
at all times

10. Power sources
Only connect the equipment to a power supply of
the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the equipment.
The primary method of isolating the equipment from
the mains supply is to remove the mains plug. The
equipment must be installed in a manner that makes
disconnection possible.
11. Power-cord protection
Power supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them. Pay particular attention to the
point where they exit from the equipment.
12. Non-use periods
If the equipment is not being used for an extended
period, we recommend that you unplug the power
cord of the equipment from the outlet, to save power.
13. Abnormal smell
If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected from the
equipment, turn the power off immediately and
unplug the equipment from the wall outlet. Contact
your dealer and do not reconnect the equipment.
