●

Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights or halogen lights) which typically give off high heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.

●

Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Wall mounted equipment shall not be grounded by metal within the wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.

●
