    Important Safety Notices • RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN • TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER. NO USER- SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. This symbol warns the user that uninsulated voltage within the unit may have sufficient magnitude to cause electric shock.
  • Page 4 All wires are positioned away from high-temperature and high-voltage parts, and, if removed for servicing, they must be retuned precisely to their original positions. 5. LAMP Be very careful of the lamp because it generates high heat while it is used at high voltage. When replacing the bulb, make sure it is cool enough.
