For Your Safety

To prevent fires, electric shock, injury, or damage to the unit, be sure to follow these guidelines when performing any wiring or cabling:

a.Before performing any wiring or cabling, unplug the unit’s power cord from the outlet. After completing all wiring and cabling, plug the power cord back into the outlet.

b.Do not place any objects on top of the cables connected to the unit.

c.When running cables along the floor, use protectors to prevent the cables from being stepped on.

d.Do not run any cables under carpeting.

Do not attempt to repair the power cord, or plug. If the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed, contact an authorized service representative for a replacement.

Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can draw a significant amount of current that can generate heat, and eventually cause fire if left unattended over an extended period of time.

Stop operation immediately if the unit emits smoke, excessive heat, abnormal smell or unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Immediately turn the unit off, and unplug the power cord, and contact your dealer for service.

Do not connect or disconnect the AC plug with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

When disconnecting the unit, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord forcibly can damage it, and cause fire or electric shock.

During thunderstorms, do not touch the unit and plug. It may cause an electric shock.
