A Consumer Guide to Product Safety
When used in the directed manner, this unit has been designed and manufactured to ensure your
personal safety. However, improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards.
Please read all safety and operating instructions carefully before installation and use, and keep
these instructions handy for future reference. Take special note of all warnings listed in these
instructions and on the unit.
1. Water and Moisture – The unit should not be used near water. For example: near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
2. Ventilation – The unit should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere
with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar
surface that may block ventilation openings. Also, it should not be placed in a built-in installation,
such as a bookcase or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
3. Heat – The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
4. Power Sources – The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described
in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance itself.
5. Grounding or Polarization – This product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current
line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). As a safety feature this plug will fit
into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to fit the plug into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of your polarized plug by forcing the plug into the outlet.
6. 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. It is always best to have
a clear area from where the cord exits the unit to where it is plugged into an AC outlet.
7. Cleaning – The unit should be cleaned only as recommended. See the Maintenance section
of this manual for cleaning instructions.
8. Objects and Liquid Entry – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids
are not spilled into any openings or vents located on the product.
9. Attachments – Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer.
10. Lightning and Power Surge Protection Unplug the unit from the wall outlet during
a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This
will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
11. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in fire or electric shock.
12. Damage Requiring Service – The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel
when:
A. the power supply cord or plug has been damaged.
B. objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled into the enclosure.
C. the unit has been exposed to rain.
D. the unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
E. the unit exhibits a marked change in performance or does not operate normally.
13. Antenna – Do not connect an external antenna to the unit.
14. Periods of Nonuse – If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period of time, such
as a month or longer, the power cord should be unplugged from the unit to prevent damage
or corrosion.
15. Servicing – The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond those methods described
in the user’s operating instructions. Service methods not covered in the operating instructions
should be referred to qualified service personnel.
