  • Page 4 This symbol means there is risk of danger. The SMB350 is a sensitive electrical equipment, care should be taken so that the maximum benefit and performance can be derived from the device. Before cleaning or performing any maintenance on the SMB350, disconnect the device from its auxiliary power source.
  • Page 5 Do not use any water or other liquid cleaning agents. Ventilation Check to make sure that there is sufficient space around the periphery of the SMB350 to allow air to circulate. Reposition any extraneous wiring that is on the SMB350. Maintenance Check to make sure that the wiring contacts are tight and making good contact, tighten any terminal screws that may have loosened over time from jarring or vibration.
