(servicing) instructions in the literature provided with the equipment. 

This symbol is intended to alert the user of the presence of uninsulated dangerous 
voltage within the product’s enclosure that may present a risk of electric shock. 

Caution

Read

 

Instructions • 

Read and understand all safety and operating instructions before using the equipment. 

Retain Instructions • 

The safety instructions should be kept for future reference.

Follow Warnings • 

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the equipment or in the user 

information.

Avoid Attachments • 

Do not use tools or attachments that are not recommended by the equipment 

manufacturer because they may be hazardous. 

Warning

Power sources • 

This equipment should be operated only from the power source indicated on the product. This 

equipment is intended to be used with a main power system with a grounded (neutral) conductor. The 
third (grounding) pin is a safety feature, do not attempt to bypass or disable it. 

Power disconnection • 

To remove power from the equipment safely, remove all power cords from the rear of 

the equipment, or the desktop power module (if detachable), or from the power source receptacle (wall 
plug).

Power cord protection • 

Power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on or pinched by 

items placed upon or against them. 

Servicing • 

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. To 

prevent the risk of shock, do not attempt to service this equipment yourself because opening or removing 
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. 

Slots and openings • 

If the equipment has slots or holes in the enclosure, these are provided to prevent 

overheating of sensitive components inside. These openings must never be blocked by other objects. 

Lithium battery • 

There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace it only with the 

same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the 
manufacturer’s instructions.
