7.For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning or power line surges.

8.Do not use attachments not recommended in this owner’s manual as they may cause hazards.

Installation:

9.Locate the equipment for proper ventilation. For ex- ample, the equipment should not be placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block ventilation

openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

10.Locate the equipment away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliance (in- cluding amplifiers) that produce heat.

11.Mount the equipment in a wall or cabinet only as de- scribed in this owner’s manual.

12.Do not use this equipment near water; for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.

13.Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The equipment may fall, caus- ing serious injury to a person, and serious damage to the product.

Connection:

14.Connect this equipment only to the type of AC power source as marked on the unit.

15.Route AC power cords so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, con- venience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the instrument.

16.Do not defeat the inherent design features of the polar- ized plug. Non-polarized line cord adapters will defeat the safety provided by the polarized AC plug. If the plug should fail to fit, contact your electrician to re- place your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
