IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read these operating instructions carefully before using the unit. Follow the safety instructions on the unit and the safety precautions listed below. Keep these operating instructions handy for future reference.

Safety

Environment

Getting started

1.Power source— Connect the unit to a power source of the type described in these instructions or as marked on the unit.

2.Polarization— The unit is equipped with a polarized power plug where one blade is wider than the other. This safety feature en- sures that the plug fits into your household AC outlet only one way. If the plug doesn’t fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still doesn’t fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the plug.

3.Power cord protection— Route the AC power supply cord so that it will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it. Never take hold of the plug or cord with wet hands. Always grasp the plug body firmly when connecting and discon- necting it.

4.Overloading— When connecting the AC power supply cord, be careful not to overload the household AC outlet, extension cord, or outlet from any other device as this can result in fire or electric shock.

5.Nonuse periods— Turn the unit off when it is not in use. Unplug the unit from the household AC outlet if it is not to be used for a long time. Unplug the unit during lightning storms.

6.Attachments and accessories— Use only the attachments and accessories recommended in these operating instructions.

Installation

Placement

1.Ventilation— Situate the unit so that it receives proper ventila- tion. Do not install in a confined space such as a bookcase or cabinet. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear of the unit. To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire due to over- heating ensure curtains and other materials do not obstruct the unit’s ventilation.

2.Foreign material— Ensure objects and liquids do not get into the unit. Avoid exposing the unit to excessive smoke, dust, mechani- cal vibration, and shock.

3.Magnetism— Situate the unit away from equipment and devices that generate strong magnetic fields.

4.Stacking— Do not place heavy objects on top of this unit.

5.Surface— Place the unit on a flat, level surface.

6.Carts and stands— Use the unit only with carts and stands rec- ommended by the manufacturer. Move carts with

care. Sudden stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces can cause carts to overturn.

7.Wall and ceiling mounting— Do not mount the unit on walls or ceilings unless specified in the in- structions.

1.Water and moisture— Do not use the unit near water, such as near a bathtub or swimming pool. Avoid damp basements.

2.Heat— Situate the unit away from heat sources, such as radiators.
