this can result in risk of fire or electric shock.

Objects and Liquid – Never allow objects of any kind or liquids to be
pushed/spilled into this product through openings as they may come

product.

If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d) 

If the product does not operate normally even if you follow the

work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal
operating condition.

damaged.

Unauthorised substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other
hazards.

Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the product is in safe operating order.

Condensation – Moisture will form in the operating section of the unit
if the unit is brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the
temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the unit's
performance will be impaired. To prevent this, let the unit stand in its
new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make
sure that the room temperature rises gradually. Condensation may
also form during the summer if the unit is exposed to the breeze from
an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the unit.
