2.) Keep these instructions.

3.) Heed all warnings.

4.) Follow all instructions.

5.) Do not use this apparatus near water.

6.) Clean only with dry cloth.

7.) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8.) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9.) 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 is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10.) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11.) Only use attachments / accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12.) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

13.) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

14.) This appliance shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing water and no object filled with liquids such as vases shall be placed on the apparatus.

15.) Do not overload wall outlet. Use only power source as indicated.

16.) Use replacement parts as specified by the manufacturer.

17.) The product may be mounted to a wall only if recommended by the manufacturer.

18.) Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks.
