produce heat.

9

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or ground-

ing-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider
than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provid-
ed for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.

10

Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.

11

Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufac-

turer.

12

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When
a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13

Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when

unused for long periods of time.

14

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is

required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate

normally, or has been dropped.

• Do not expose this apparatus to drips or splashes.
• Do not place any objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on
the apparatus.

• Do not install this apparatus in a confined space such as a
book case or similar unit.

• The apparatus draws nominal non-operating power from the
AC outlet with its POWER or STANDBY/ON switch not in the ON
position.

• The apparatus should be located close enough to the AC
outlet so that you can easily grasp the power cord plug at any
time.

• The main plug is used as the disconnect device, the discon-
nect device shall remain readily operable.

• If the product uses batteries (including a battery pack or
installed batteries), they should not be exposed to sunshine, fire
or excessive heat.

• Caution should be taken when using earphones or head-
phones with the product because excessive sound pressure
(volume) from earphones or head- phones can cause hearing
loss.
