8.ACCESSORIES - Do not place this DVD-VCR on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table. The DVD-VCR may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the unit. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the DVD-VCR. Any mounting of the unit should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

8a. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

9.VENTILATION - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the DVD-VCR and to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered. Never place your VCR on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, on or near a radiator or heat register.
