10) Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to pro-
tect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similiar surface. This product should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been
adhered on.
11) Power Sources – This product should be operated only from the
type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer
or your local power company.
12) Grounding or Polarization – This product may be equipped with
a polarized alternating-current line 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 replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
13) Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from the prod-
uct.
14) Lightning – For added protection for this product during a light-
ning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the cables system.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line
surges.
15) Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in the risk of fire or
electric shock.
16) Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind into this
product 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 product.
