WARNING
• 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 down and causing personal injury
and/or property damage.
• Use nuts and bolts that are appropriate for the
ceiling's or wall's material and structure. Tighten
each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that the bracket
has no loose joints after installation to prevent
accidents that could result in personal injury.
• (Applicable to H-2 only)
Since the unit is designed for in-door use, do not
install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of
parts causes the unit to fall off, resulting in
personal injury. Also, when it gets wet with rain,
there is a danger of electric shock.
• Do not apply lubricant and rust inhibitor. If it
contacts resin or rubber parts, they could
deteriorate and cause the unit to fall, possibly
resulting in personal injury.
• (Applicable to H-2WP only)
Avoid installing the unit in locations close to the
seashore, or in indoor swimming pools or
bathrooms. In such locations, the bracket may be
vulnerable to corrosion, eventually allowing the
unit to fall resulting in personal injury.
