*Mitsubishi Electric Corporation puts the maximum effort into making semiconductor products better and reliable, but there
is always the possibility that trouble may occur with them. Trouble with semiconductors may lead to personal injury, fire or
property damage. Remember to give due consideration to safety when making your circuit designs, with appropriate
measures such as (i) placement of substitutive, auxiliary, circuits, (ii) use of non-flammable material or (iii) prevention
against any malfunction or mishap.
