ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and inter-connections between the pieces

of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.  Switch off and withdraw the
mains plug before making or changing connections.

DO

consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.

placed on the equipment and don’t handle the power cord with wet hands.

DON’T

place hot objects or naked flame sources such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to equipment.  High

temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

DON’T

 use makeshift stands and 

NEVER

fix legs with wood screws - to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s

approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.

listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your

hearing.

DON’T

leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated

that it is designed for unattended operation or has a stand-by mode.  Switch off using the switch on the equipment
and make sure that your family knows how to do this.  Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or
handicapped people.

DON’T

continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working

normally, or if it is damaged in any way - switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
