ATTENTION INSTALLING PERSONNEL
As a professional installer you have an obligation to
know the product better than the customer. This
includes all safety precautions and related items.
Prior to actual installation, thoroughly familiarize
yourself with this Instruction Manual. Pay special
attention to all safety warnings. Often during
installation or repair it is possible to place yourself
in a position which is more hazardous than when
the unit is in operation.
