4. Do not use this product near water (for example, near a bath tub, kitchen
sink, or swimming pool).
5.
Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product
may fall, causing serious damage to the product.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for
ventilation. To protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked

product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This
product should not be placed in a built-in installation where proper ventilation is
not provided.

indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply
to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product
where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.
9. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a
risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
10. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but take
it to an authorized service facility. Opening or removing cabinet parts other
than specified access doors may expose you to dangerous voltages or other
