Before using this unit, be sure to carefully read the applicable items of these operating instructions and the safety
suggestions. Afterwards keep them handy for future reference. Take special care to follow the warnings indicated on the
unit, as well as in the operating instructions.
1. Water and Moisture - Do not use the unit near any
source of water or in excessively moist environments.
2. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that
objects do not fall, and liquids are not spilled, into the
enclosure through openings.
3. Ventilation - When installing the unit in a rack or any
other location, be sure there is adequate ventilation.
Improper ventilation will cause overheating, and can
damage the unit.
4. Heat - The unit should be situated away from heat
sources, or other equipment that produce heat.
5. Power Sources - The unit should be connected to a
power supply only of the type described in the operating
instructions, or as marked on the unit.
6. Power Cord Protection - AC power supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.
Never take hold of the plug or cord if your hand is wet.
Always grasp the plug body when connecting or
disconnecting it.
7. Grounding of the Plug - This unit is equipped with a 3-
wire grounding type plug, a plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-
type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat
the purpose of the grounding-type plug.
