REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND INJURY
TO PERSONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:

1. Read and understand all instructions.

3. Unplug this product from the wall telephone jack and power
outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

4. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or
near a swimming pool.

5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand or table.
The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product.

6. Slots or openings in the cabinet and the bottom are provided
for ventilation, to protect it from overheating. These openings
must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never
be blocked by placing the product on a bed, or other similar
surface. This product should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register.

7. This product should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of
the type of power supply to your home, consult your dealer or
local power company.

8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not
place this product where the cord will be abused by persons
stepping on it.

9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can
result in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.

10. Never push objects of any kind into this product through
cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or

short out parts that could result in fire or electric shock.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this
product but take it to a qualified serviceman when some
service or repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks.
Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the
appliance is subsequently used.

12. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled into the product.
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the product to normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
f. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.

Safety Instructions for Batteries

CAUTION

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

1. Use only the size and type of batteries mentioned in the Owner's
Manual.

2. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cells may explode.
Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.

3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if
swallowed.

4. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the batteries
with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The
batteries or conductors may overheat and cause burns.

5. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries identified for use with this
product. The batteries may leak corrosive electrolyte or explode.

6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this
product by heating it. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may
occur causing burns or irritation to eyes or skin.

7. When replacing batteries, all batteries should be replaced at the
same time. Mixing fresh and discharged batteries could increase
internal cell pressure and rupture the discharged batteries.

8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity or
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of the batteries can
cause charging, and that may result in leakage or explosion.

9. Remove the batteries form this product if the product will not be
used for a long period of time (several months or more) since during
this time the batteries could leak in the product.

10. Discard "dead" batteries as soon as possible since "dead" batteries
are more likely to leak in a product.

11. Do not store this product, or the batteries identified for use with
this product, in high-temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a
freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should be
protected from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries
should be stabilized at room temperature prior to use after cold
storage.
