Installation

For Your Safety

To prevent severe injury and loss of life, read this section carefully before using the unit to ensure proper and safe operation of your unit.

CLASS 1 LED PRODUCT

WARNING

The following graphic symbols are used in this Operating Instructions manual.

Denotes a potential hazard that could

WARNING

CAUTION

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 unit safely.

result in serious injury or death.

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

Power and Ground Connection

The power source voltage of this unit is listed on the nameplate. Only plug the unit into an AC outlet with the proper voltage. If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the unit or plug may emit smoke or become hot to the touch.

When you operate this product, the power outlet should be near the product and easily accessible.

To ensure safe operation the power cord supplied must be inserted into a standard three-prong AC outlet which is effectively grounded (earthed) through the normal wiring.

The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is grounded (earthed) and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding (earthing) of the power point, consult a qualified electrician.

If the plug cannot be inserted into the AC outlet, contact a licensed electrician to replace the AC outlet with a properly grounded (earthed) one.

Do not defeat the grounding (earthing) plug (ex. do not use a conversion plug).

Plug the power cord firmly into an AC outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shock.

Do not pull, bend, rest objects on, or chafe the power cord and plug. Damage to the power cord or plug can cause fire or electric shock.

For You r Safety

Do not attempt to repair the power cord or plug. If the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed, contact an authorized service representative for a replacement.

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.

Never touch the plug with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

Stop operation immediately if the unit emits smoke, excessive heat, abnormal smell or unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Immediately turn the unit off and unplug the power cord, and contact your dealer for service.

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

During thunderstorms, do not touch the unit and plug. It may cause an electric shock.

Operating Safeguards

If metal fragments or water gets into the unit, turn the unit off and unplug the unit immediately. Contact your dealer for service. Operating the contaminated unit can cause fire or electric shock.

Never open or remove unit covers that are screwed with screws un less specifically instructed in the “Operating Instructions”. A high-voltage component can cause electric shock.

Do not alter the unit or modify any parts. Alteration or modification can cause fire or electric shock.

CHOKING HAZARD

Keep the marker’s cap, battery, SD memory card or USB flash memory device out of reach of children to prevent chocking.

Battery

Use only the specified type of battery. Using the incorrect type of battery can result in overheating/burning or leakage of battery acid.

Before You Start

Installation and Relocation

When the unit will no longer be used, in order to prevent it from falling, do not leave the unit installed, but remove it. If the unit falls, it can cause injury.

Make sure that the battery is installed with the correct polarity as indicated on the battery holder. Incorrectly installed batteries may burst or leak, resulting in injuries.

Batteries that seem worn down or damaged should not be used. Using worn down or damaged batteries may result in leaking.

Do not charge, short, heat, break or throw in a fire, as it may result in the battery leaking, generating heat, or bursting.

When disposing of the battery, cover the battery contacts with insulation (ex. tape). Direct contact with other batteries may result in leaking, fire, or explosion.

Do not solder the battery, as it may result in the battery leaking, generating heat, or bursting.

For Your Safety

Locking the casters (Push this side)

Push to lock

CAUTION

Power

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

After installing or moving the unit, lock the casters and set the fall-prevention extension legs.

The unit should be used only with the power cord that is supplied by the manufacturer.

Installation and Relocation

Do not position the unit in a location where it is unstable.

Do not place the unit in a hot humid or dusty environment. Prolonged exposure to these adverse conditions may cause fire or electric shock.

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this unit to rain or any type of moisture.

When moving the unit, be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. If the unit is moved with the power cord attached, it can cause damage to the cord which could result in fire or electric shock.

Move this unit with two persons. Otherwise, this unit may fall down and cause injury.

Operating Safeguards

If the unit is fallen down or damaged, turn the unit off and unplug the power cord. Otherwise, it may cause fire or electric shock.

Do not put drinks, other liquids or heavy items on the tray or screen. Accidental spillage of liquid into the unit may cause severe damage. If this occurs, turn the unit off, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer for service.

Do not lean against the screen or on the tray, even if the unit is mounted on the wall.

Battery

Do not install the unit except by a qualified service personnel.

When the unit is not used over an extended period of time, take the batteries out of the unit. Otherwise, the batteries may leak. Do not use the leaked batteries.
