SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Improper  installation,  adjustment,  alteration,  service,

maintenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock or

other  conditions  which  may  cause  personal  injury  or  property

damage.  Consult  a  qualified  installer,  service  agency,  or  your

distributor or branch for information or assistance. The qualified

installer or agency must use factory-authorized kits or accessories

when modifying this product. Refer to the individual instructions

packaged with the kits or accessories when installing.

Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Use

quenching  cloths  for  brazing  operations  and  have  a  fire

extinguisher  available.  Read  these  instructions  thoroughly  and

follow all warnings or cautions attached to the unit. Consult local

building codes and appropriate national electrical codes (in USA,

ANSI/NFPA70, National Electrical Code (NEC); in Canada, CSA

C22.1) for special requirements.

It is important to recognize safety information. This is the safety-

alert symbol 

. When you see this symbol on the unit and in

instructions  or  manuals,  be  alert  to  the  potential  for  personal

injury.

Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION,

and NOTE. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol.

DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which 

will

 result in

severe  personal  injury  or  death.  WARNING  signifies  hazards

which 

could

 result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used

to identify unsafe practices, which 

may

 result in minor personal

injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight

suggestions which 

will

 result in enhanced installation, reliability,

or operation.
