NOTES

Before attaching the front panel, make sure that there is no dirt or dust on the connector terminals and no foreign object between the front panel and the main unit.

Attach the front panel carefully by holding the sides of the front panel. This will help you to avoid pushing buttons by mistake.

The movable display may be adjusted to 3 different angles depending upon user preference.

NOTES

The adjusted angle of the display is stored in memory. There is no need to re-adjust the angle when the power is turned back on.
