Important Safety Instructions
Observe the following safety instructions when using your system:
•
Follow all instructions marked on this product and in the
documentation.
•
When the system is turned off, a small amount of electrical current
still runs through the system. Always unplug the system from the
electrical outlet before cleaning the system or opening the cover.
•
Do not use this product near water or a heat source, such as a
radiator or heat register.
•
Do not spill anything on or into the system. The best way to avoid
spills is to avoid eating and drinking near your system.
•
Make sure you set up the system on a stable work surface.
•
Openings in the system cabinet are provided for ventilation. Do not
block or cover these openings. Make sure you provide adequate
space (at least 12 inches) around the system for ventilation when
you set up your work area. Never insert objects of any kind into the
system ventilation slots.
•
Use the voltage setting for your area. The voltage selector switch is
set at the factory to the correct voltage.
•
This system is equipped with a 3-wire grounding plug (a plug with
a grounding pin). This plug will only fit into a grounded power
outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat the purpose of the
grounding pin. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
contact your electrician to replace the outlet.
•
Do not walk on the power cord or allow anything to rest on it.
•
If you use an extension cord with this system, make sure the total
ampere ratings on the products plugged into the extension cord do
not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Also, the total ampere
requirements for all products plugged into the wall outlet must not
exceed 15 amperes.
Warning!
Do not attempt to service
the system yourself except
as explained elsewhere in
the system documentation.
Adjust only those controls
covered in the instructions.
Opening or removing
covers marked “Do Not
Remove” may expose you
to dangerous voltages or
other risks.
Refer all servicing of those
compartments to qualified
service personnel.
