Notes:
1. This unit is microprocessor-controlled, so malfunction may occur due to external noise or interference noise. In such a case, unplug the power

2. Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful against contact cleaners containing oil, for they may
deform the plastic components.
