Mounting considerations

Consider the following points when choosing a mounting location.
• Choose a location where vibration and shock are minimal.
• Install the unit well away from locations subject to rain and water splash.
• Locate the unit away from air conditioner vents.
• Keep the unit out of direct sunlight because of heat that can build up inside its
cabinet.
• Choose a well-ventilated location.
• Leave sufficient space around the unit to permit access for maintenance. See
the outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.
• Choose a location where it can be easily operated.
