• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/

• Refer all servicing to approved service personnel.
• Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into
the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• Do not disassemble – no user-servicable parts inside.

This apparatus has been designed with Class 1 construction
and must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a
protective earthing connection (the third grounding pin).
The apparatus may be isolated from mains power by
unplugging the connector at the opposing end of the power
cord or cable from its supply outlet. As a result, this connector
should remain accessible.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one
wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades
and a third grounding prong. The wide blade, or the third
prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does
not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of
the obsolete outlet.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and at the point
they exit the apparatus.
