at locations other than vertical walls. near a sprinkler or a sensor. near high-voltage lines or power sources. near heating device. at locations where the unit is subject to vibration or impact. near sources of magnetism, heat, vapour, airborne grease, etc. at locations where there may be water droplets (e.g. under an air conditioner).
g Do not install this unit under ceiling lights (e.g. spotlight, halogen light, etc.).
Failure to do so may bend the cabinet or lead to damage caused by high heat.
g Use a proper installation method that suits the structure and material of the wall. g Use a soft blanket or cloth to prevent damage to the product or floor during installation. g When tightening screws, make sure the screws are not loosely-tightened or overtightened. g Secure a safe surrounding area and pay attention to safety during installation. g Panasonic is not liable for incidental or consequential damages resulting from improper installation or operation.
Only a qualified building contractor shall install or uninstall this unit.
Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
To prevent injury, the unit must be securely attached to the wall in accordance with the installation instructions.
Do not install the unit where it cannot support the load.
If the mounting parts are not strong enough, this may cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
Do not use installation methods other than instructed.
This may cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Do not install the unit at locations other than vertical walls.
This may cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Take the safety factor for mounting strength into account (approx. 10 times the product weight).
Insufficient strength will cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
The wall on which the unit is to be attached to should be capable of supporting 20 kg per screw.
Insufficient strength of the walls will cause the unit to fall in the long run.
Do not disassemble or modify the wall-mounting hanger.
This will cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Do not install this unit at humid or dusty locations, or locations where airborne grease or steam may come into contact with the unit, or under an air conditioner where water may drip onto the unit.
This may have negative impact on the unit, resulting in fire or electric shock.
Secure enough space of more than 30 cm above the main unit and more than 10 cm on the left and right sides respectively. Keep space between the wall and rear of the unit clear of obstructions.
Blocking the exhaust holes on the main unit may result in fire.
Use the designated components for installation.
Otherwise, the main unit may fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
Prevent the mounting screws or power cord from coming into contact with metal parts inside the wall during installation.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock.
When removing the main unit, remove the wall mounting screws as well.
Otherwise the wall mounting screws may hit a person and lead to injury.
Install the unit at a height where the USB port and operation buttons can be seen for safe operation.
Operating at improper position may cause the unit to fall and be damaged, resulting in injury.
