This apparatus uses batteries. In your community,
there might be environmental regulations that require
you to dispose of these batteries properly. Please
contact your local authorities for disposal or recycling
information.
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
adaptors beyond their capacity, since this can result in
fire or electric shock.
Route power-supply cords so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against them. Pay particular attention to cords at the
plug end, at wall outlets, and the point where they
exit from the apparatus.
To protect this apparatus from a lightning storm,
or when it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will
prevent damage to the set due to lightning and
power line surges.
Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC
adaptor outlet, make sure the voltage designation
of the DC adaptor corresponds to the local electrical
supply.
Never insert anything metallic into the open parts
of this apparatus. Doing so may create a danger of
electric shock.
To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of this
apparatus. Only a qualified technician should open
this apparatus.
Make sure to plug the power cord in until it is firmly
seated. When unplugging the power cord from a wall
outlet, always pull on the power cord's plug. Never
unplug by pulling on the power cord. Do not touch
the power cord with wet hands.
If this apparatus does not operate normally - in
particular, if there are any unusual sounds or smells
coming from it - unplug it immediately and contact an
authorized dealer or service centre.
Maintenance of Cabinet.
- Before connecting other components to this
product, be sure to turn them off.
- If you move your product suddenly from a cold

the product is to remain unused or if you are leaving
the house for an extended period of time (especially
when children, elderly, or disabled people will be left
alone in the house).
- Accumulated dust can cause an electric shock, an
electric leakage, or a fire by causing the power cord
to generate sparks and heat or the insulation to
deteriorate.
Contact an authorized service centre for information
if you intend to install your product in a location with
heavy dust, high or low temperatures, high humidity,
chemical substances, or where it will operate 24 hours
a day such as in an airport, a train station, etc. Failing
to do so may lead to serious damage of your product.
Use only a properly grounded plug and wall outlet.
- An improper ground may cause electric shock or
equipment damage. (Class l Equipment only.)
To turn this apparatus off completely, you must
disconnect it from the wall outlet. Consequently, the
