WARNING DANGEROUS VOLTAGES, capable of causing death or serious injury, are present on the external terminals and inside the equip- ment. Use extreme caution and follow all safety rules when han- dling, testing or adjusting the equipment. However, these internal voltage levels are no greater than the voltages applied to the exter- nal terminals.
