Important Safeguards
• Always turn off and/or unplug the control equipment when it is
not in use. Never yank the power cord to pull the plug from the
outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not drop the control console or allow it to get wet.
• Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces or hang over the
edge of a table that would damage or cut the cord.
•
If an extension cord is necessary, use a three-pronged, polarized
cord. Arrange the cord with care so that it will not be tripped
over or pulled out.
•
Before using an extension cord, inspect the cable thoroughly and
verify its compliance with local electric codes.
• Do not disassemble control equipment or electronic controls of
the display; failure to follow this safeguard will make the warranty
null and void.
• Inspect console for shipping damage such as rattles and dents,
and verify that all equipment is included as itemized on the
packing slip. Immediately report any problems to Daktronics; save
all packing materials if exchange is necessary.
