PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION

 

 
 
 
 
 

Do not use the unit outdoors.

    Exposure to rain may cause leakage and/or electric shock.

 

 

Only  qualified  engineers  or  service  personnel  should  install  the  unit.

    The  installation  by 

unqualified personnel may cause electric shock or fire. 
 

Install the unit in a location capable of bearing the total combined weight (p optional 
acces stored items).    After installing the unit, be absolutely sure to take precautions to 
prevent the unit from falling over.

    If the unit is installed in a location which is not strong enough or if 

the proper precautions are not taken, the unit may fall over and cause injuries.

 

 
Do not install the unit where there are high levels of moisture or where it may be splashed with 
water.

    Installing the unit where there are high levels of moisture or where it may be splashed with 

water may cause the insulation to deteriorate and give rise to leakage and/or electric shock.

 

 
Do  not  install  the  unit  in  a  location  where  flammable  or  volatile  substances  are  present.

   

Installing  the  unit  in  a  location  where  flammable  or  volatile  substances  are  present  may  cause 
explosions and/or a fire.

 

 

Do not install the unit in a location where corrosive gases such as acids are present.

    Installing 

the  unit  in  a  location  where  corrosive  substances  are  present  may  cause  electric  components  to 
corrode, leading to leakage and/or electric shock due to the deterioration of insulation resulting from 
corroded electrical components.

 

 

Do  not  place  this  unit  in  a  location where  it  is difficult to  disconnect  the  power supply  plug.

   

Failure to disconnect the power supply plug may cause fire in the event of a problem or malfunction. 

 
Be absolutely sure to earth (ground) the unit in order to prevent electric shock.   

Failure to earth 

the product may give rise to electric shock.    If necessary, ask a qualified contractor to do this work. 

 

Do not connect the earth wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, or lightning rod when earthing the 
unit.

    Earthing the unit improperly may give rise to electric shock. 

 

Connect the unit to a power source as indicated on the rating label attached to the unit.   

Use of 

any other voltage or frequency other than that on the rating label may cause fire or electric shock. 

 

Never store volatile or flammable substances in this unit except in a sealed container.

    Such 

substances may cause explosion or fire if they leak.

 

 

Never insert metal objects such as pins and wires into any vent, gap or outlet

 

on the unit.

    This 

may cause electric shock or injury by accidental contact with moving parts.

 

 

When  handling  harmful  samples  (for  example,  those  which  consist  of  toxic,  pathogenic,  or 
radioactive  substances),  install  the  unit  inside  a  designated  isolation  facility.

    If  the  unit  is 

installed in a location which is not an isolation facility, there may be detrimental effects on both people 
and the natural environment.
