SAFETY

Our aim is to supply you with a product that provides you with countless 
hours of trouble free use.

In order to achieve these goals, we recommend the following:-

Keep the system away from direct sources of heat e.g. Central heating 
radiators, heaters and direct sunlight.

Should the Transmitters not be used for extended periods of time we
recommend that the batteries are removed to avoid any potential leakage.

Keep the system clean by using a slightly damp cloth. Never use household 
cleaning agents or solvents.

Avoid using or storing the system in damp conditions.

Always use the AC power adaptor supplied with the Receiver and 

never 

remove

the external covers of the equipment, so as to expose the 

electronics.
