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.

• This section explains the graphic symbols used in

this manual.

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

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

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.

For Users

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.

8 Operating Instructions (For Basic Operations)

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).

For Your Safety

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.

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.

Installation and Relocation

Have the unit installed, removed and disposed of only by qualified service personnel.

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.

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 unless 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.

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.

CHOKING HAZARD

Keep the penpoint and battery out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

Battery

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

Operating Instructions (For Basic Operations) 9

CAUTION

For Your Safety

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.

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.

The unit should be used only with the power cord enclosed with the unit.

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.

10 Operating Instructions (For Basic Operations)

Locking the casters (Push this side)

Push to lock

For Your Safety

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

Operating Safeguards

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

Do not lean against the screen or on the cover (lower), even if the unit is mounted on the wall.

Safety Information (For United Kingdom Only)

This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 5 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5 amps and that it is approved by ASTA

a removable fuse cover, you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced. If you lose the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from your local Panasonic Dealer.

IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR PREMISES, THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMP SOCKET. If a new plug is to be fitted, please observe the wiring code as shown below. If in any doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.
