WARNING: This product or its power cord contains lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defect or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

•DO NOT install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

•DO NOT BLOCK ANY VENTILATION OPENINGS. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

•STORE IDLE APPLIANCES INDOORS. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry place.

•USE OF ACCESSORIES AND ATTACHMENTS. The use of any accessory or attachment not recommended for use with this appliance could be hazardous. Note: Refer to the accessory section of this manual for further details.

•DON’T ABUSE CORD:

–Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

–Protect the AC Charging Adapter cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

–DO NOT expose the AC Charging Adaptor to dripping or splashing. DO NOT place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.

•DISCONNECT APPLIANCE. The AC Charging Adapter should be kept in a readily operable condition. To avoid damage to the unit or Adapter, disconnect the unit from any power supply when not in use, before cleaning, during lightning storms, and changing accessories or when it will be unused for long periods of time. To disconnect the unit from the power supply, the AC

Charging Adapter must be completely disconnected from any AC outlet.

•ELECTRICAL FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTOR protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used. Receptacles are available having built in electrical fault circuit interruptor protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

•OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When appliance is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

•EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The accompanying table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

			Minimum Gage for Cord Sets
Volts				Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V			0-25	26-50	51-100	101-150
			(0-7,6m)	(7,6-15,2m)	(15,2-30,4m)	(30,4-45,7m)
240V			0-50	51-100	101-200	201-300
Ampere Rating			(0-15,2m)	(15,2-30,4m)	(30,4-60,9m)	(60,9-91,4m)

10 -		12	16	16	14	12
12 -		16	14	12	Not Recommended

WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD:

•If an extension cord is used, make sure that:

a)the pins of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those in the Charger/Adapter,

b)the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition,

c)the wire size is large enough for the AC rating of the charger as indicated in the Minimum Gage for Cord Sets Table.

•Do not operate unit with damaged cord or plug; or if the unit has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Do not disassemble the unit; take it to a qualified service technician when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire, and will void warranty.

•Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:

•Use only on a flat, stable surface. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the appliance/cart combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

•Do not disassemble the main body of the unit. There are no user-replaceable parts.

•This unit is weather-resistant, NOT waterproof. Do not submerge in liquids of any kind. *Manufacturer makes no claims of weather-resistance for MP3/digital music player (not included).

•DO NOT expose to extreme heat or flames.

•DO NOT expose battery to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

•Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

•Position charging adapter cord so it does not become entangled or become a safety hazard. Keep cord away from sharp edges.

•Pull cord by plug rather than cord when disconnecting the 120V AC Charging Adapter from the unit.

•Never insert anything other than the supplied Charging Adapter into the unit’s AC Power Adapter Receptacle/Charging Port.

•Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the appliance or adapter cord or plug has been damaged in any way, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the appliance, the appliance has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
