Installation
Connect this unit's power cord only to an AC outlet of the type
G
stated in this Owner's Manual or as marked on the unit. Failure
to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become
G
wet. Fire or electrical shock may result.
Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on
G
top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects inside this unit are a fire
and electrical shock hazard.
Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the
G
power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock
hazard. In particular, be careful not to place heavy objects on a
power cord covered by a carpet.
Operation
Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A dam-
G
aged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Do not remove the unit's cover. You could receive an electrical
G
shock. If you think internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is
necessary, contact your dealer.
Installation
Keep this unit away from the following locations:
G
- Locations exposed to oil splashes or steam, such as near cook-
ing stoves, humidifiers, etc.
- Unstable surfaces, such as a wobbly table or slope.
- Locations exposed to excessive heat, such as inside a car with
all the windows closed, or places that receive direct sunlight.
- Locations subject to excessive humidity or dust accumulation.
Do not place the power cord close to a heater. It may melt, caus-
G
ing fire or electrical shock.
Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it from an AC out-
G
let. Never pull the cord. A damaged power cord is a potential fire
and electrical shock hazard.
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a
G
potential electrical shock hazard.
This unit has ventilation holes at the front and rear to prevent the
G
internal temperature rising too high. Do not block them. Blocked
ventilation holes are a fire hazard.
In particular, do not
- place the unit on its side or upside down,
- place the unit in any poorly-ventilated location such as a
bookcase or closet (other than on the dedicated rack),
