Important Safety Instructions
a Read these instructions.
m Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service
personnel. Servicing is required when
the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as power-supply cord or plug
is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus,
the apparatus has been exposed to rain
or moisture, does not operate normally,
or has been dropped.
b Keep these instructions.
c Heed all warnings.
d Follow all instructions.
e Do not use this apparatus near water.
f Clean only with dry cloth.
g Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
h Do not install near any heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other apparatus (including amplifi ers)
that produce heat.
i Protect the power cord from being
walked on or pinched, particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and
the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
j Only use attachments/accessories
specifi ed by the manufacturer.
k Use only with the cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table specifi ed by the
manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination
to avoid injury from tip-over.
n Battery usage CAUTION – To prevent
battery leakage which may result in
bodily injury, property damage, or
damage to the unit:
Install all batteries correctly, + and - •
as marked on the unit.
Do not mix batteries (old and new •
or carbon and alkaline, etc.).
Remove batteries when the unit is •
not used for a long time.
o Apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
p Do not place any sources of danger on
the apparatus (e.g. liquid fi lled objects,
lighted candles).
q This product may contain lead and
mercury. Disposal of these materials
may be regulated due to environmental
considerations. For disposal or recycling
information, please contact your local
authorities or the Electronic Industries
Alliance: www.eiae.org.
r Where the MAINS plug or an appliance
coupler is used as the disconnect device,
the disconnect device shall remain
readily operable.
Warning
l Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms
or when unused for long periods of time.
2 EN
Never remove the casing of this apparatus. •
Never lubricate any part of this apparatus. •
Never place this apparatus on other electrical •
equipment.
•
Keep this apparatus away from direct sunlight, naked
fl ames or heat.
Never look into the laser beam inside this apparatus.
•
Ensure that you always have easy access to the power •
cord, plug or adaptor to disconnect this apparatus
from the power.
Hearing safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
Using headphones at a high volume can •
impair your hearing. This product can
produce sounds in decibel ranges that
may cause hearing loss for a normal
person, even for exposure less than a
minute. The higher decibel ranges are
offered for those that may have already
experienced some hearing loss.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your •
hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to higher
volumes of sound. So after prolonged
listening, what sounds ‘normal’ can
actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing. To guard against this, set your
volume to a safe level before your hearing
adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
Set your volume control at a low setting. •
Slowly increase the sound until you can •
hear it comfortably and clearly, without
distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
Prolonged exposure to sound, even •
at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also cause
hearing loss.
Be sure to use your equipment •
reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines
when using your headphones.
Listen at reasonable volumes for •
reasonable periods of time.
Be careful not to adjust the volume as •
your hearing adapts.
Do not turn up the volume so high that •
you can’t hear what’s around you.
You should use caution or temporarily •
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations. Do not use headphones while
operating a motorized vehicle, cycling,
skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffi c
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
