IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

For your protection, please read these safety instructions completely before operating the appliance, and
keep this manual for future reference. Carefully observe all warnings, precautions and instructions on the
appliance, or the one described in the operating instructions and adhere to them.
Use
Power Sources
This set should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of electrical power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company. For
those sets designed to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
Polarization
This set may be equipped with a polarized ac power cord plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to
have a suitable outlet installed.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can
result in fire or electric shock.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or
short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the set.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer, as they may cause hazards.
Cleaning
Unplug the set from the wall outlet before cleaning or polishing it. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners. Use a cloth lightly dampened with water for cleaning the exterior of the set.
Installation
Water and Moisture
Do not use power-line operated sets near water − for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
Power-Cord Protection
Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where the cord exits from the appliance.
Accessories
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The set may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to the set. Use only a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer.
Ventilation
The slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of
the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be blocked or covered.
– Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.
– Never block the slots and openings by placing the set on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
– Never place the set in a confined space, such as a bookcase, or built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is
provided.
– Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat register, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
