Battery
The battery contains diluted sulfuric
acid, a very toxic substance. If the
battery leaks and the liquid inside spills
on the skin or clothing, immediately
wash it off with plenty of clean water. If
the liquid splashes into eyes,
immediately flush the eyes with plenty of
clean water and consult a doctor.
Sulfuric acid in the eyes may cause loss
of eyesight and acid on the skin will
cause burns.
Do not charge, short, heat, break or
throw in a fire, as it may result in the
battery leaking, generating heat, or
bursting.
Do not connect the positive terminal and
the negative terminal of the battery to
each other with any metal object (such
as wire).
Do not carry or store the batteries
together with necklaces, hairpins, or
other metal objects.
Do not mix old and new batteries or
different types of batteries.
Batteries that seem worn down or
damaged should not be used. Using
worn down or damaged batteries may
result in leaking.
Do not use rechargeable batteries.
Take the depleted batteries out of the
remote control. Otherwise, the batteries
may leak.
CAUTION

extended period of time, take the
batteries out of the remote control.
Otherwise, the batteries may leak. Do
not use the leaked batteries.
When the unit is not used over an
extended period of time, switch it off and
unplug it. If an unused unit is left
connected to a power source for a long
period, degraded insulation may cause
electric shock, current leakage, or fire.
The unit should be used only with the
power cord and AC adaptor enclosed
with the unit.
Installation
The unit should be kept free of dust,
moisture, high temperature (more than
40 °C) and vibration, and should not be
exposed to direct sunlight.
Place this unit on a flat surface. Serious
damage and/or injury may result if the
unit falls.
Allow 10 cm clearance around the unit
for proper ventilation.
Do not place the unit in an area close to
fire. Doing so may cause fire.
Battery
Be sure to use the specified type of
