Safety Information

For Your Safety

To prevent severe injury and loss of life, read this section carefully before using the Panasonic DP-C406/C306/C266 to ensure proper and safe operation of your machine.

 This section explains the Warnings and Cautions used in this Operating Instructions manual.

WARNING

CAUTION

 This section also explains the graphic symbols used in this Operating Instructions manual.

These symbols are used to alert operators to a specific operating procedure that must not be performed.

These symbols are used to alert operators to a specific operating procedure that must be emphasized in order to operate the machine safely.

This symbol is used to alert operators to a heated surface that may cause burns and requires close attention.

Denotes a potential hazard that could result in serious injury, or death.

Denotes hazards that could result in minor injury, or damage to the machine.

WARNING

Power and Ground Connection Cautions

Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can draw a significant amount of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire if left unattended over an extended period of time.

Always use the power cord provided with your machine. If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine, or plug may emit smoke, or become hot to the touch.

Do not attempt to repair, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire, or electric shocks.

Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

If the power cord is broken, or insulated wires are exposed, contact the authorized Panasonic dealer for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire, or electric shocks.

When disconnecting the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord forcibly can damage it and cause fire, or electric shock.

Stop operation immediately if your machine emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise or smell, or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately switch Off and unplug the machine and contact the authorized Panasonic dealer.

Do not disconnect, or reconnect the machine while the power switch is in the On position. Disconnecting a live connector can cause arcing, consequently deforming the plug and cause fire.

When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it Off and unplug it. If an unused machine is left connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation can cause electric shocks, current leakage or fire.

Be sure to switch Off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for cleaning, maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machine’s interior can cause electric shock.

Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following. If you notice any unusual condition, contact the authorized Panasonic dealer.

z The power cord is plugged firmly into the

receptacle.

z The plug is not excessively heated, rusted,

or bent.

z The plug and receptacle are free of dust. z The cord is not cracked or frayed.

Product Overview
