sonal injury.
• Read these instructions.
• Keep these instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this apparatus near water.
• Clean only with dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polar-
ized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong
are provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician
for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on
or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience re-
ceptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by
the manufacturer.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms
or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
• Only plug power supply into readily accessible
outlet to allow the appliance to be unplugged
quickly.
• Only operate this apparatus in a well ventilated
area.
• A battery operated radio with integral batteries
or a separate battery pack must be recharged
only with the specified charger for the battery. A
charger that may be suitable for one type of battery
may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery.
• Use battery operated radio only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other bat-
teries may create a risk of fire.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
• Store your battery pack and charger in a cool, dry
place. Do not store battery pack where temperatures
may exceed 120°F (50°C) such as direct sunlight,
.
a vehicle or metal building during the summer.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
• Do not use any adaptor plugs.
• When operating a radio outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A" or "W". These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
• Never disassemble the radio or try to do any
rewiring on the radio's electrical system.
• Do not expose this apparatus to dripping and
splashing, or place objects filled with liquids on
this unit.
