that may constitute a risk of electric shock.

This symbol is to alert the user to important
operating and maintenance (service)
instructions in this manual and literature
accompanying the product.

Keep the ventilation inlets on the unit unobstructed. For example, do not place
the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that could block the ventilation
slots. If the unit is placed in a bookcase or cabinet, there must be sufficient
clearance around the unit and ventilation of the cabinet to allow proper cooling.

Keep the unit away from radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other
appliance that produces heat.

The unit must be connected to a power supply only of the type and voltage
specified on the rear panel of the unit.

Connect the unit to the power outlet only with the supplied 2-pin polarized
power supply cable or an exact equivalent. Do not modify the supplied cable in
any way. Do not attempt to defeat grounding and/or polarization provisions. The
cable should be connected to a 2-pin polarized wall outlet, matching the wide
blade of the plug to the wide slot of the receptacle. Do not use extension cords.

Do not route the power cord where it will be crushed, pinched, bent at severe
angles, exposed to heat, or damaged in any way. Pay particular attention to the
power cord at the plug and where it exits the back of the unit.

The power cord should be unplugged from the wall outlet if the unit is to be left
unused for a long period of time.

Immediately stop using the unit and have it inspected and/or serviced by a
qualified service agency if:

• The power supply cord or plug has been damaged.

• Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled, into the unit.

• The unit has been exposed to rain.

• The unit shows signs of improper operation

• The unit has been dropped or damaged in any way

Place the unit on a fixed, level surface strong
enough to support its weight. Do not place the
unit on a moveable cart that could tip over.
