It's really important you read Safety Precautions Before Operation and Installation
Incorrect installation due to ignoring instructions can cause serious damage or injury.
The seriousness of potential damage or injuries is classified as either a WARNING
or CAUTION.
Explanation of Symbols
WARNING
The signal word indicates a hazard with a medium level of risk
which, if not avoided, may result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
The signal word indicates a hazard with a low degree of risk which,
if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
Read these operating instructions carefully and attentively before using/commis-
sioning the unit and keep them in the immediate vicinity of the installation site or
unit for later use!
WARNING
Installation must be performed according to the installation instructions. Improper
•
installation can cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
Use only the included accessories and parts, and specified tools for the installation.
•
Using non-standard parts can cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire, and injury
or property damage.
Make sure that the outlet you are using is grounded and has the appropriate
•
voltage. The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug to protect
against shock.
Voltage information can be found on the nameplate of the unit.
Your unit must be used in a properly grounded wall receptacle. If the wall
•
receptacle you intend to use is not adequately grounded or protected by a time
delay fuse or circuit breaker (the fuse or circuit breaker needed is determined by
the maximum current of the unit. The maximum current is indicated on the
nameplate located on unit), have a qualified electrician install the
proper receptacle.
Install the unit on a flat, sturdy surface. Failure to do so could result in damage or
•
excessive noise and vibration.
The unit must be kept free from obstruction to ensure proper function and to
•
mitigate safety hazards.
