7. HEAT AND TEMPERATURE: Place the equipment
far away from heat sources such as radiators, heat logs,
stoves or other electronic equipment (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
8. VENTILATION: The rack, shelf or special furniture
where you place the equipment must have ventilation
slots or openings in order to protect the equipment from
overheating.
Place the equipment with at least 6 inches (16 cm) free
space from the top and with a space behind it that allows
a free flow of air.
9. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION: As a safety
feature, the unit is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug, which has one blade wider than the
other. This plug can be inserted in the electric outlet only
one way.
If you cannot insert the plug completely into the outlet,
try inverting the plug.
If the plug still does not fit correctly, contact a licensed
electrician to update your obsolete outlet. Do not remove
or damage the safety end of the polarized plug.
10. POWER SOURCES: Use the equipment only with
outlets that have the power supply indicated in the label
of the equipment. If you are not sure about the type of
power supplied in your home, contact your local
electricity supplier.
11. POWER CORD PROTECTION: Fix the power cords
in such a way that there is no risk of them being crushed,
caught or squeezed by other equipment or furniture.
Particularly pay attention to the ends of the cords, both
the end that goes into the outlet and the end that directly
comes from the equipment.
12. LIGHTNING: For best protection during an electric
storm or when the equipment is inactive for long periods
of time, unplug the equipment from the outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable decoder. This will help
protect the equipment from lightning and electrical
surges.
13. ELECTRIC LINES: Do not place an external antenna
system near the aerial electric lines or other electric
power circuits. When installing an external antenna
system, you must be very careful not to touch the
electric lines or circuits since contact with them may be
lethal.
14. OVERLOAD: Do not overload the wall outlets,
extension cords or power strips, since this increases fire
and electrical shock hazards.
15. SAFETY VERIFICATION: After any service or repair
to the equipment, ask the service technician to perform
safety controls to make sure the equipment is in proper
working condition.
16. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:
CAUTION:
Any modification not expressly approved by Margules
will make the warranty of the equipment void and may
result in hazard for the user.
•
Before connecting a new product such as the I-240
to your audio
or home theater system, turn off all other
equipment (preferably by unplugging them from the AC
power source).
Many audio components have automatic start circuits
that may activate during an installation; this could cause
damage to the electronic components and/or speakers.
This kind of damage is not covered by the warranty of
this product and as such Margules specifically is
released of liability for said damages.
•
The detachable power cord supplied with your
equipment was specifically designed to be used with
this product; however, you may use other better-quality
power cords in order to take the utmost advantage of the
capabilities of this equipment.
Ask your Margules distributor for advice on power cords
that may be used with your system.
•
For your protection, the product is equipped with an
AC fuse (6A-SB) located on the back of the chassis. This
fuse may be replaced by the user. In case the fuse is
replaced and the equipment does not turn on, contact an
authorized service representative. The spare fuse must
be always the one specified by the manufacturer.
•
The electric wiring that runs inside the walls must
have the proper UL certification (Underwriters
Laboratories) to indicate satisfactory compliance with
all requirements set forth by the regulations in force, and
belong to the list authorized by the UL, CSA or other
regulation required by the UL, CSA, NEC or your local
construction code. Questions on electric wiring must be
submitted to a certified installer, licensed electrician or
low voltage contractor.
