Appendix D: Safety notices

General safety

Keep these instructions and heed all warnings. Do not use this apparatus near water. Clean only with 
a dry cloth. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other 

apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. No 

user serviceable parts inside.

When using an external power supply, use only attachments/accessories specified by Origin Effects. 

Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, 
and the point where they exit from the apparatus. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarised or 
grounding-type plug. A polarised 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 provided for 

your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the 

obsolete outlet. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
