Unpacking

6 Unpack the unit carefully and make sure that all accessories are put aside so they will not be lost.

Examine the unit for any possibility of shipping damage. If your unit is damaged or fails to operate, notify your dealer immediately. If your unit was shipped to you directly, notify the shipping company without delay. Only the consignee (the person or company receiving the unit) can file a claim against the carrier for shipping damage.

We recommend that you retain the original carton and packing materials for use should you transport or ship the unit in the future.

Keep this manual handy for future reference.

Safety precautions

Beware of condensation

When water vapor comes into contact with the surface of cold material, water drops are produced.

If condensation occurs, correct operation may not be possible, or the unit may not function correctly.

This is not a malfunction, however, the unit should be dried.

(To do this, turn the ON/STANDBY switch ON and leave the unit as it is for several hours.)

Be especially careful in the following conditions:

¦When the unit is brought from a cold place to a warm place, and there is a large temperature difference.

¦When a heater starts operating.

¦When the unit is brought from an air-conditioned place to a place of high temperature with high humidity.

¦When there is a large difference between the internal temperature of the unit and the ambient temperature, or in conditions where conden- sation occurs easily.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Unplug this appliance from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.

Caution against contact revitalizer

Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful against contact cleaners containing oil, for they may deform the plastic componente.
