Safety Symbol and Message Conventions

Safety symbols and messages are used in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property damage which
could result from mishandling. Before doing anything else, read this section first so you are thoroughly aware
of the potential safety hazards as well as understanding the safety symbols and messages.
• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the unit. Using a voltage other than that which is specified
may result in fire or electric shock.
• Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted surface.
Failure to do so may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury.
• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket.
Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling and causing personal injury.
• Do not install the unit outdoors since it is designed for indoor use. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts
causes the unit to fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury. Also, when it is exposed to rain, an electric
shock may result.
• Should any of the following irregularities be found during use, immediately switch off the power, disconnect
the power supply cord from the AC outlet and contact your TOA dealer. Do not attempt to further use the unit
because a fire or electric shock may result.
• If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming from the unit.
• If water or a foreign object enters the unit.
• If the unit falls or the unit case breaks.
• If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of core or disconnection).
• If no image is displayed on the screen.
• Do not open nor modify the unit’s case to prevent a fire or electric shock because there are high voltage
components inside the unit. Refer all inspection, adjustment and repair work to the dealer from where the
unit was purchased.
• Do not insert or drop metal pieces or flammable materials into the unit’s ventilation slots as this may result in
fire or electric shock.
• Have the unit periodically checked by the dealer from where it was purchased. Should the unit or its mounts
corrode or structurally deteriorate, the unit could fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in death or
serious personal injury if ignored or mishandled.
WARNING
• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the
heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric
shock.
• Leave the unit’s installation to the dealer from where the unit was purchased because the installation
requires expert knowledge. Inadequate installation may cause the unit to fall, possibly resulting in personal
injury.
• Do not hang from the unit, as the unit may fall, possibly resulting in personal injury.
• When the unit is cleaned or is not used for a long period of time, remove the power supply plug from the AC
outlet in order to avoid electric shock or fire.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in
moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage if ignored
or mishandled.
CAUTION
Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment where it may be
splashed by water or other liquids, as doing otherwise may result in
fire or electric shock.
