CAUTION: The mains lead must be connected to a supply

outlet with a protective earth contact. The electrical supply at the
socket outlet must provide over current protection of an
appropriate rating.

Pluggable equipment must be installed near an easily
accessible socket outlet. Permanently connected equipment
must have a readily accessible disconnect device incorporated
in the fixed wiring.

For your protection all mains (110V or 230V) equipment used
out of doors or in wet or damp conditions should be supplied
from a correctly fused source and protected by an approved
RCD to BS7071 or BS7288 or BS4293. IF IN DOUBT SEEK

ADVICE FROM A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Safe use

To avoid the possibility of electric shock or damage to the
machine, always switch off the machine and isolate from the
power supply before carrying out any routine maintenance.

Cleaning the machine

CAUTION: Harsh abrasives, solvents, scouring cleaners and

alkaline cleaning solutions, such as washing soda, should not
be used especially on the display windows. Under no
circumstances should you attempt to wipe the inside of the
machine.

The outside of standard products may be wiped down with a
clean cloth moistened with water containing a small amount of
washing up liquid. The outside of products waterproofed to
IP65, IP66 and IP67 may be washed down with water
containing a small amount of a proprietary detergent.
