6. Attachments - Do not use attachments not
recommended by the product manufacturer as they
may cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture - Do not use this unit near water,
for example near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,
or laundry basket, in a wet basement, near a
swimming pool, in an unprotected outdoor installation
or any area which is classified as a wet location.
8. Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable
stand, tripod, bracket or mount. This unit may fall,
causing serious injury to a person and serious
damage to the unit. Use only a stand, tripod, bracket
or mount recommended by the manufacturer, or sold
with the product. Any mounting of the unit should
follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use
a mounting accessory recommended by the
manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.
9. Ventilation - Openings in the enclosure, if any, are
provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the unit and to protect it from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered. The
unit should not be placed in a built-in installation
unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.
10. Power sources - Units 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
you plan to use, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company. For units intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the
"Installation and User Instructions".
11. Grounding or polarisation - This unit may be equipped
with a polarised 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 still fails to
fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarised plug. Alternatively, this unit may be equipped
with a 3-wire grounding type plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-
type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type lug.
12. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should
be routed so that they are likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.

•
If the unit does not operate normally by
following the instructions for use. Adjust only

often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the units to their normal
operation.
•
If the unit has been dropped or the unit has
been damaged.
•
When the unit exhibits a distinct change in
performance; this indicates a need for service.
17. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are
required be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or
parts which have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorised substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock or other hazards.
18. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or
repairs to the units, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the unit is in
proper operating condition.

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the cable system. This will
